LB – Whitehaven (Memphis, TN) 6’2, 270
Committed: 10/22/2019
Stars: 4 – 247Sports Composite / 4 – Rivals / 3 – ESPN

Josh Ward’s Analysis: Jeremy Pruitt loves the size of Eason, who looks like a guy ready to compete for playing time. With Daniel Bituli and Darrell Taylor leaving, expect Eason to provide immediate depth at linebacker.

Eric Cain’s Analysis: Bryson Eason will ideally figure into the inside linebacker position for Tennessee – but with size of 6-foot-2, 255 pounds, he could provide depth on the outside as well. Eason was the key piece in bringing all three Whitehaven playmakers to Knoxville and should have the opportunity to play an immediate role.
