Multiple sources are reporting that Tennessee quaterback Nico Iamaleava has been cleared to play Saturday vs. Georgia after being questionable this week in practice. Per ESPN:

Iamaleava, a redshirt freshman, missed the second half of the 33-14 win over Mississippi State last week after suffering a blow to the head. He was listed as questionable earlier this week on the SEC availability report but has been removed in the latest report.

Iamaleava practiced this week, including team periods, and there was optimism among the staff that he was trending in the right direction and would be able to play. But the final call was made by medical personnel. Iamaleava was examined by doctors for what sources told ESPN were concussion-like symptoms after leaving the Mississippi State game. He did not return to the sideline for the second half.

Tennessee coach Josh Heupel said on Monday that he felt like Iamaleava would be in "great shape for Saturday" and noted that Iamaleava was with the team earlier Monday morning for meetings and team activities. The Vols' first full-scale practice was Tuesday.
