Tennessee practiced for a fifth time during fall training camp on Monday.

Fourth-year offensive line coach Glen Elarbee met with media after practice and discussed the Vols' depth within the unit.

"So much better," Elarbee said of Tennessee's offensive line depth being better this season. "Especially this spring where so many young guys got reps, and then you get all of the older guys back. One, it helps you with your older guys. You can plug in young guys and get them reps and the team doesn't suffer. They can function. They can go and do the job, and it helps them continue to grow. Them moving up helps guys that have just gotten here like Bennett Warren and Lance Heard. Those kinds of guys still get reps, and it just makes life a lot easier, for sure."

Tennessee will kick off its upcoming season on Aug. 31 versus Chattanooga at Neyland Stadium (12:45 p.m. EDT, SEC Network).
