List of Tennessee Players Declared for the 2023 NFL Draft

College football powerhouse Tennessee has several strong NFL Draft prospects in 2023. Quarterback Hendon Hooker and wide receiver Jalin Hyatt lead the pack, though there's a host of others who could hear their names called.

With that in mind, here's everything you need to know about the Volunteer alumni who could become 2023 draft picks. 

Tennessee Underclassmen Declared for 2023 NFL Draft

To be eligible for the NFL Draft, players must have been out of high school for at least three years and used up all of their college eligibility. However, underclassmen and prospects who have graduated early can also request permission from the league to be draft-eligible.

Just one non-senior is part of Tennessee's 2023 draft hopefuls. Jalin Hyatt is forgoing his remaining years of college eligibility to pursue the NFL.

Tennessee Seniors in the 2023 NFL Draft

Most of the NFL Draft is comprised of seniors who spent four years in college before attempting to enter the pros. This allows those who don't break out early to continue their development in hopes of closing out their collegiate careers strong.

Tennessee has 13 seniors looking to make the jump to the NFL. This group is headlined by QB Hendon Hooker, who is projected as a first-round pick. He's joined by offensive tackle Darnell Wright, wide receiver Cedric Tillman, EDGE Byron Young, linebacker Jeremy Banks, defensive lineman Elijah Simmons, guard Jerome Calvin, linebacker Solon Page, defensive lineman Latrell Bumphus, tight end Princeton Fant, cornerback Trevon Flowers, punter Paxton Brooks and kicker Chase McGrath.
