A former Tennessee Vols player is in the NCAA transfer portal for a second time.

Former Vols linebacker Aaron Willis, who transferred to Houston after the 2021 season, reportedly entered the transfer portal on Wednesday evening.

Houston OL Tyler Johnson and LB Aaron Willis have entered the transfer portal, @chris_hummer and I have learned for @247sports.

Johnson, an ex-Texas transfer, was an All-AAC selection last year. Willis is an ex-Tennessee signee and former 4-star recruit.https://t.co/6Cw7NKmknb pic.twitter.com/8ouPqH0OfP

Willis signed with Tennessee during the 2021 recruiting cycle as four-star recruit. He signed with the Vols in December, 2020 (a month before Jeremy Pruitt was fired as the program's head coach).

The Virginia native saw very little action as a true freshman at Tennessee in 2021, totaling just one tackle before hitting the transfer portal.

Willis totaled just five tackles for Houston over the last two seasons.
