The next Alvin Kamara? Eric Gray posts stat line not seen at Tennessee since 2016
This isn’t the first time Eric Gray has been compared to Alvin Kamara and it likely won’t be the last.
Against Missouri on Saturday, Tennessee’s outstanding sophomore running back accomplished something not seen on Rocky Top since Kamara roamed the sidelines in Knoxville.
Gray has scored on Saturday via the ground and the air against Missouri’s defense.
Believe it or not, Gray is the first Volunteer to score via a rushing touchdown and a receiving touchdown since Nov. 26, 2016.
The last player to do it?
You guessed it, Alvin Kamara.
