WATCH: Georgia Players Compete at Reese's Senior Bowl
There are a record number of Georgia Bulldogs in attendance at this year's Reese's Senior Bowl.
- DB Mark Webb
- TE Tre McKitty
- DL Malik Herring
- OL Ben Cleveland
- DB DJ Daniel
- LB Monty Rice
We have footage of the offensive line and defensive unit's getting after it in some 1-on-1s.
These were Malik Herring's final reps at the Senior Bowl. As you can see in the first clip, he limps off awkwardly following his final rep with Alabama offensive lineman Alex Leatherwood. He was having a dominant day in 1-on-1s, as you will see, prior to his knee injury. It has been confirmed that Herring tore the ACL in his right knee.
Each of the Bulldogs will be on the South team during the game Saturday, led by Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule and his staff. Rhule coached against Georgia last season in the Sugar Bowl when he was the head coach of the Baylor Bears.
Jim Nagy, executive director of the Senior Bowl, had some interesting things to say about this group of Bulldogs throughout the week. He said that he expected tight end Tre McKitty to be the breakout player of the week, and up to this point, McKitty has lived up to the bill.
DJ Daniel has played exceptionally well throughout the week at practice and has turned heads throughout the NFL with his play. He's coming off a year where he didn't see a bunch of playing time behind Eric Stokes and Tyson Campbell.
Daniel also has phenomenal tape against some of the top available wide receivers in this 2021 NFL Draft class, most notably Ja'Marr Chase. Daniel handled Chase well in the SEC Championship game in 2019.
According to sources, Ben Cleveland was injured during the first practice and hasn't been seen in action since. He was seen limping off the field with what appeared to be a lower-body issue.
