The high-octane Tennessee offense was so much fun to be a part of during the 2022 season with Hendon Hooker and a little bit of Joe Milton at the end that tight end Jacob Warren wants to come back for more in 2023.

The Knoxville native announced on social media on Wednesday that he will be returning for 1 more season in orange and white.

The 6-foot-6, 250-pound Warren was only a small part of the Volunteers’ powerful offensive machine in 2022, collecting 12 catches for 163 yards, with a long reception of 45 yards. But Warren also might be seeing a lot more playing time in 2023, with fellow tight end Princeton Fant declaring for the NFL Draft before the Orange Bowl victory over Clemson.

“I believe I have more to prove in this chapter of my life,” Warren wrote in his announcement on Twitter, along with expressing his appreciation that he’s been able to live out his childhood dream of playing for the school in the city he grew up in.

Warren has collected 37 receptions for 416 yards and 4 touchdowns during his 4-year Volunteer career that began in 2019.

Last year was Warren’s redshirt senior year, so he’s got 1 more season of eligibility and he intends to make the most of it with Milton now at the controls of the Tennessee offense.
