Georgia Expected to Have More Players Back Against Kentucky

Per reports, it seems like a few Bulldogs will return from injury to play against Kentucky. We'll talk about who those players are, and what their return means.

Despite the bad news that Georgia would be without Lawrence Cager and Justin Shaffer this week, it looks defensive lineman, Travon Walker, will also be absent from Saturday's matchup against Kentucky.

While that means another huge blow to this Georgia roster, there is some positive news for the Bulldogs.

It's looking like there is a possibility that running back, Brian Herrien and cornerback, Tyson Campbell could return to the field as soon as this week.

As for Herrien, the injury seemed like it caught most people off guard, considering he was even listed as a starter by the PA. It was determined later that he had been dealing with back spasms.

There's no telling how fast Georgia will want to bring Herrien back into the rotation. While his talent is surely a plus to this offense, the Bulldogs probably won't rush him into the process with D'Andre Swift, Zamir White, and James Cook all being healthy.

Still, as one of the nation's top running back units, Georgia is going to need Herrien in order to compete down the road.

Tyson Campbell has been out since he injured his toe against Arkansas State in Week 3. He's been absent ever since, but it looks like Georgia is going to ease him back onto the field, soon. The Bulldogs certainly need him back.

Campbell brings a certain level of physicality that not many corners in the whole country possess. He also has a huge frame at 6'2 185 lbs., which makes him very hard to replace.

There's a chance we'll get to see both of these guys play, and there's a chance we don't see either of these guys play this weekend. It all depends how cautious the staff chooses to be with them. 

We'll monitor both Herrien and Campbell moving forward, in hope that they are active in Saturday night's contest with the Kentucky Wildcats.
