Virginia Tech Hokies Running Back Bhayshul Tuten will attend the famous Reese’s Senior Bowl in January. The Senior Bowl is a week-long event in Mobile, Alabama that serves as the premier NFL showcase for draft-eligible athletes.
Following a week of practice in front of NFL coaches, scouts, and general managers from all 32 NFL teams, the week culminates with a game between the two teams.
The 5-foot-11, 209-pound Tuten was having an All-ACC season before he injured his ankle at Georgia Tech Syracuse more than three weeks ago. Tuten dressed at Syracuse the following week, but did not play. He played against Clemson last week, but was clearly hobbled and had no impact.
Tuten carried the ball four times for zero yards but caught two passes for 21 yards.
So far in nine games, including one in which Tuten was injured, he has run for 951 yards (6.5 YPC) and 12 rushing touchdowns. He averages more than 100 yards per game and shattered the Virginia Tech single-game rushing record in October, when he rushed for 266 yards and three touchdowns against Boston College.
