Hendon Hooker's Injury Diagnosed as Torn ACL After Tennessee's Loss to South Carolina

His Tennessee career is over.

During Saturday's loss to South Carolina, the quarterback tore his left knee and ended his season.

The announcement said that Hendon will come back stronger than ever as he begins his NFL career.

On Saturday, the Volunteers were devastated.

Hooker's College Football Playoff hopes came to an end when they lost 63-38. Thanks to Tennessee's inability to stack defensive stops, the outcome was decided before the star quarterback left.

Hooker's season is over due to an injury.

He completed 69.6% of his passes for 3,135 yards and 27 touchdown. He had a great game against Alabama with 386 yards and five touchdown passes through the air and 56 yards on the ground.

Even after a loss to Georgia, the Volunteers were firmly in the national discussion with Hooker as a candidate for the Heisman.

The hopes of the SEC East team ended with Saturday's loss. When Tennessee plays in a bowl game, it will most likely be under the leadership of Joe Milton III, who started his collegiate career at Michigan.
