Kirby Smart Updates Georgia's Injury Report Ahead of Trip to Kentucky.

Georgia head coach Kirby Smart discussed the status of Javon Bullard and others in his press conference on Monday, ahead of a trip to Kentucky.

Georgia's defense is once again one of the premier units in the sport, giving up just 9 touchdowns through 10 games. But as the season has worn on, the Bulldogs have seen some of their key contributors sidelined.

Nolan Smith, a team leader and projected first round pick, was lost for the year against Florida. Georgia also saw safety Dan Jackson go down for year. 

Against Mississippi State, defensive back Javon Bullard, who was coming off of a huge performance against Tennessee, went down with a lower body injury. He returned briefly but was replaced by Tykee Smith. 

Georgia head football coach Kirby Smart updated Bullard's status among others at his weekly press conference on Monday.

On Adonai Mitchell:

"He felt like he may have tweaked it some... It's a pain in the butt injury. It's been frustrating for him." said Smart.

"He was not where he could come out of breaks and the stuff it takes to play receiver... It'll be day by day."

On Javon Bullard:

"Bullard has a lower leg contusion, like below the knee. Think he's going to be fine. He was limited a little yesterday." said Smart.

"Think he's going to be able to play."
