ESPN's latest 2025 NFL mock draft from Mel Kiper and Field Yates has Tennessee Vols running back Dylan Sampson landing with one of his former UT teammates.

Kiper and Yates have the Dallas Cowboys selecting Sampson in the third round (No. 76 overall) of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Landing in Dallas would reunite Sampson with former Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton.

Milton, a sixth round pick by the New England Patriots in the 2024 NFL draft, was traded from the Patriots to the Cowboys earlier this month.

Sampson and Milton played together for two seasons (2022 and 2023) at Tennessee.

From ESPN: The Cowboys focused on other needs early, but they finally get their running back -- and Sampson has good upside. He ran for 1,491 yards and 22 touchdowns last

Sampson had one of the greatest seasons in Tennessee history in 2024, setting the program record for rushing yards (1,491) in a single season and rushing touchdowns (22) in a single season.

The Louisiana native finished his Volunteers career with 2,492 rushing yards, 35 rushing touchdowns, 342 receiving yards, and one receiving touchdown.

Sampson isn't expected to fall below the third round in the 2025 NFL Draft.
