Former Tennessee running back Jalen Hurd has a doppelgänger.
During the Volunteers’ game against Missouri on Saturday, a snapchat surfaced on social media that purported to show Hurd in the stands at Neyland Stadium. The tweet from @wiley_stidham has been deleted but here’s the screen shot.
Shortly after that picture went viral on social media, a Twitter used named Skyler Allen tweeted that he was actually the person in that picture, not Hurd.
Sooooo I went to the UT game and someone took a pic of me and thought it was actually Jalen Hurd and now I'm all over Twitter ??

Another Twitter user later tweeted out a side-by-side comparison of Hurd and Allen. When you see the two next to each other, it’s not surprising Allen was mistaken for the ex-Tennessee running back.
