The 6-foot-3, 215-pound prospect is a Vols' legacy . His father Robert Peace played at Tennessee from 2000-03. The 2027 linebacker has not accumulated any recruiting rankings from 247Sports, Rivals or On3.
JP Peace unofficially visited Tennessee for the 2024 Florida football game and again for the South Carolina basketball game on March 8. He was also in attendance for Tennessee junior day on Jan. 25.
UAB was the first program to offer a scholarship to the 2027 prospect on June 15, 2024. Other schools to offer JP Peace scholarships include Georgia State, Florida State , Southern Miss, USF, Virginia Tech, Appalachian State and Marshall.
Tennessee does not have a commitment in its 2027 football recruiting class. The Vols have seven commitments in their 2026 recruiting class: Quarterback Faizon Brandon , wide receiver Tyreek King , tight end Carson Sneed , offensive lineman Gabriel Osenda , wide receiver Tyran Evans , linebacker Braylon Outlaw and defensive lineman C.J. Edwards .
