Tennessee tight end McCallan Castles was only in Knoxville, Tennessee, for one season, but it was quite a strong one. He scored five touchdowns for the Vols and is ranked as the No. 8 fullback/H-back on Mel Kiper Jr.’s 2024 NFL Draft board.
Castles signed with Priority Sports for his representation at the NFL level. He’s been very thankful during the times that he’s gotten to speak about his experience at the University of Tennessee. He made major contributions to a team that needed a tight end, which helped them a lot at various points in 2023.
Obviously, I wasn’t here for the whole time, but I came here for the football, but I always remember the people. This has been the best college football experience I’ve ever been a part of. I mean, this is my best friend right here (Jacob Warren). I spend every day with him just growing, but you know, I’ve never felt like I belonged more in the college football space than I have here, and I’ve made multiple stops, so I just think that speaks to the culture that these guys have built here with Heupel, and it’s a great place. Like, Tennessee is where you want to be to play football.” – McCallan Castles on Tennessee after the win over Vanderbilt
