BRISTOL, Tenn. — After practicing at defensive tackle and on the offensive line during spring practice earlier this year, Tennessee redshirt freshman Charles Mosley finally might have found a more permanent home.

Vols coach Butch Jones told GoVols247 on Monday that the 6-foot-5, 350-pound Mosley is “going to be an offensive lineman” after spending most of the spring working at defensive tackle.

“As of right now, he’s going to be an offensive lineman,” Jones said during Tennessee’s Big Orange Caravan stop at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Mosley, a former four-star prospect from Brighton (Tenn.) High School, redshirted last year after suffering a broken leg in a July car accident. He wasn’t back to full strength by the start of spring practice, but he still was able to participate, working exclusively at defensive tackle for the first four weeks of the spring.

Tennessee then moved him to offensive guard for two practices during the final week of spring drills before playing him on the defensive line during the spring-ending Orange and White Game on April 25, in large part because of the Vols’ limited depth on the defensive line this spring.

But with spring practice now in the rearview mirror, Jones said he and his staff simply are “trying to put him in the position that’s best for him.”

For now, that appears to be somewhere on the offensive line.

“He’ll continue to be evaluated,” Jones said. “But right now, in the middle of May, he’s an offensive lineman.”
