"We have three individuals we have signed their releases, Paul Harris, Tino Thomas and Tom Smith," Jones said. "We have allowed them to explore further options."
Harris, a true freshman wide receiver from Accokeek, Maryland played in five games for the Vols this season. He caught one pass for 15 yards in the season opener.
Thomas, a defensive back, signed with Tennessee out of Memphis in 2011 as a grayshirt. He redshirted in 2012 before appearing in three games for the Vols this season on special teams.
Smith, a redshirt sophomore running back out of Apopka, Florida carried the ball 24 times this season, mostly in games that had already been decided. He redshirted last season.
Jones indicated more roster turnover could be coming. The Vols will welcome 14 early enrollees in early January, before the additional 20 or so members of the 2014 class enroll in June.
