Tennessee linebacker Arion Carter returns for game against Georgia Tech

Tennessee senior linebacker Arion Carter will return to the lineup for the No. 18 Volunteers' game at Georgia Tech on Saturday. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. EDT at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta with television coverage on ESPN. Carter missed the Sept. 5 season opener against Furman while serving an NCAA-mandated suspension related to a $427.48 flight that he repaid during the NFL pre-draft process. To commemorate his return, Carter announced he will donate $427 to cancer treatments at Sisters Network Nashville. He also pledged personal donations for defensive performance milestones, including $500 per sack, $1,000 for each interception, and $5,000 for a defensive touchdown. Carter enters the matchup as a selection for both the Butkus Award and Lott IMPACT Trophy watch lists.
