Most coaches will tell you that injuries are simply a part of football. Yet even by the tough-guy standard that the sport inflicts on its participants, the Tennessee Volunteers have had an unspeakably unlucky rash of injuries this season.

Virtually every meaningful player on the Vols has missed at least some time this season, with the injuries ranging from season-ending (like in the case of All-SEC linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin) to those that cost players like Jalen Hurd a game or two. And the news got even worse on Tuesday when it was revealed that Alvin Kamara -- who just two weeks ago rushed for 127 yards and had another 161 receiving against Texas A&M -- will miss at least 2-4 weeks after suffering multiple knee injuries against Alabama.

So just how bad has the Vols' string of injuries been? Here is a look at what they’ve dealt with this season as they head into a much-needed bye on Saturday.
