The Georgia Bulldogs have added yet another highly talented commit to their 2026 recruiting class.

After experiencing one of the hottest months of recruiting ever seen by a college football program, the Georgia Bulldogs are back again with another extremely impressive acquisition to their 2026 recruiting class.

Kaiden Prothro, a 5-star tight end from Bowden, Georgia, has just announced his commitment to Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs. According to 247Sports, Prothro stands at 6-foot-6 and presents a matchup nightmare for any opposing defense.

The Texas Longhorns, Florida Gators, and a handful of other major SEC programs were heavily involved in the tight end's commitment. However, it was ultimately the efforts of Kirby Smart and tight end's coach Todd Hartley that won Prothro over.

With Prothro joining the class, Georgia now has an excellent chance to once again ink a top-three signing class and continue the legacy of Kirby Smart as one of college football's most dominant recruiters.
