MARTIN, Tenn. –The University of Tennessee at Martin football team is eight days into fall camp and has already had visits from eight NFL teams as on Monday, Aug. 13.
“It has created some excitement around here,” UT Martin’s seventh-year head coach Jason Simpson said.

Among the other NFL teams to visit the Skyhawks were the Green Bay Packers, the Houston Texans, the New England Patriots, the San Francisco 49ers, the Tennessee Titans and the Carolina Panthers.
Most scouts are coming to Martin to see Montori Hughes and Quentin Sims.
