Keaton Jones’ Tennessee football tour continued Tuesday.

The Tennessee resident, whose mother posted a video of him crying in the car about being bullied last week, hung out with Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Jarrett Guarantano on Sunday.

Tuesday, he went to the Tennessee football offices. He got his own jersey with “KRJ” on the back and even met former coach and athletic director Phil Fulmer.

After Jones’ mother posted the video of her son crying, he received support from a diverse population from far and wide across social media. Sunday, backlash ensued after it was discovered his mother had social media posts involving the Confederate flag.

Jones was able to go to Tennessee’s football offices because he’s not currently in school. According to CBS, he’s not planning on returning to school until after the holiday break.
