KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin would not confirm or deny rumors that starting free safety Janzen Jackson would be suspended for Saturday night's Memphis game.

Defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin didn't comment on the freshman's status either on Thursday but said he plans to start either Prentiss Wagner or Darren Myles Jr.

Lane Kiffin says he will address any suspensions after the Vols (4-4) face the Tigers (2-6).

Jackson has started seven games this season and stands and is sixth on the team with 33 tackles. He's tied for third in special teams tackles with five.

The Lake Charles, La., was named Southeastern Conference freshman player of the week this week after logging seven tackles, breaking up two passes and forcing a fumble in the Volunteers' 31-13 win over South Carolina on Saturday.
