The Missouri native ranks as the No. 52 player and No. 8 EDGE rusher in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings.
Bradley was a low five-star when he committed to Tennessee earlier this month before seeing a slight dip in his rankings. The Missouri native chose the Vols over Texas A&M and South Carolina.
Between Bradley and Riverdale High School’s Caleb Herring, the Vols have two of the top 10 rated EDGE rushers in the country committed.
Tennessee tight end commit Ethan Davis has also mentioned wanting to play basketball in college and threw down this monster slam a season ago at Georgia’s Collins Hill High School.
The Vols have had a number of commits with ambitions of playing two sports in Knoxville with little coming into fruition in recent years.
Malachi Wideman and Dee Beckwith considered playing football and basketball while Trevon Flowers considered playing football and baseball. All three players kept their talents on the gridiron.

We had such a limited roster last year. Look for an 8 to 9 win season in 2022.
Go Vols
