Tennessee football left tackle David Sanders suffered an injury against No. 7 Alabama on October 17th. The incident occurred during a first-and-10 play from UT's 14-yard line. George MacIntyre executed an interception on a pass that Radarious Jackson caught. Following the play, Sanders was seen lying on the field. He attempted to walk off the field independently but required assistance from UT staff to reach the sideline.
Sanders was immediately taken to the medical tent. LSU transfer Ory Williams took Sanders' place for the next drive. Sanders is a former five-star recruit who earned Freshman All-America honors in 2025 as a right tackle and transitioned to left tackle this season.
