Before his injury, Maggit had recorded 30 total tackles, 16 solo, five tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, five quarterback hurries, two sacks and a blocked punt in nine games this season. The top candidate to replace Maggitt for next Saturday's road game against the Vanderbilt Commodores may be senior Willie Bohannon.
The Volunteers will enter Saturday’s game two games shy of bowl eligibility at 4-6. The Volunteers play the Commodores at Vanderbilt Stadium in Nashville, Tenn. The game is scheduled for a 7 p.m. kickoff and will be televised nationally on ESPN and will be available on the Watch ESPN app.
