Tennessee football tight end Ethan Davis remains questionable on the injury report for the Oct. 11 game against Arkansas.
Four Tennessee players were listed on the SEC student-athlete availability report, which was updated Oct. 9. The report will be updated daily and then 90 minutes before the game.
No. 12 Tennessee (4-1, 1-1 SEC) plays Arkansas (2-3, 0-1) at Neyland Stadium (4:15 p.m. ET, SEC Network).
Davis, the team’s No. 2 tight end, missed the past two games due to an unspecified injury. But he has only one reception this season. If Davis is out or limited, freshman Jack Van Dorselaer will fill in after he played well late in UT’s 41-34 overtime win over Mississippi State.

How SEC availability report works
The SEC student-athlete availability report was introduced in the 2024 season for conference games only.
The initial report is released on Wednesday night of an SEC game week, with daily updates leading to a final report 90 minutes prior to kickoff of a Saturday game.
Prior to game day, players are designated by their school as available, probable, questionable, doubtful or out for the upcoming game. On game day, they are designated as available, game-time decision or out.
Here’s what those designations mean:
• Out: Will not play, 0% chance to play.
• Doubtful: Unlikely to play, 25% chance to play.
• Questionable: Uncertain to play, 50% chance to play.
• Probable: Probable to play, 75% chance to play.
Per SEC policy, schools must accurately designate players’ participation status. If the school has knowledge that a player may not be able to participate in the upcoming game for any reason (injury, illness, suspension, ineligibility or personal matter), it must report it.
Failure to do so will subject schools to potential penalties ranging from $25,000 for a first offense to $100,000 for a third and further offenses.
