NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Tennessee wide receiver Jalin Hyatt has been named Walter Camp National Offensive Player of the Week, the Walter Camp Football Foundation announced Sunday.

Hyatt was key in the Vols' first victory against Alabama since 2006. The junior set a new program record with five receiving touchdowns in Saturday's win and totaled 207 receiving yards on six catches.

Through six games this season, Hyatt has caught 33 passes for 595 yards and ten touchdowns. His ten scores lead the nation, and his receiving yards rank 21st in the country.

Hyatt and the Vols stay home next Saturday when the team hosts UT Martin for a homecoming matchup on Oct. 22 at noon.
