The talented running back finished last season with 68 carries for 330 yards and three touchdowns.

Now, Georgia will have to heavily lean on returning running backs Kendall Milton and Daijun Edwards. The Bulldogs will also look for contributions from true freshman Roderick Robinson.

Georgia’s additional options at running back include Andrew Paul, who is recovering from a torn ACL, but should be ready for a larger role as the season progresses.

Running back Len’Neth Whitehead, a transfer from Tennessee, could be a factor for the Dawgs. Kyron Jones, a true freshman, could also see carries. Walk-ons Sevaughn Clark and Cash Jones have experience and are capable of being contributors.
