Georgia offers Rutgers DL commit

The Georgia Bulldogs are in the mix for elite defensive line recruit Braxton Kyle, who plays football for North Gwinnett High School

The Georgia Bulldogs have extended a scholarship to Rutgers defensive line commitment Braxton Kyle. Georgia offered Kyle shortly before the Bulldogs lost a commitment from four-star defensive lineman Christian Garrett.

Braxton Kyle is a big defensive lineman that plays high school football for North Gwinnett High School in Suwanee, Georgia. The 6-foot-3, 320-pound defensive lineman is considered to be a three-star recruit. Kyle is the No. 1,360 recruit in the country and the No. 146 defensive lineman in the nation. The North Gwinnett star is the No. 145 prospect in Georgia.

Georgia is also targeting five-star in-state defensive linemen Justus Terry and Elijah Griffin. The Bulldogs currently have commitments from three-star defensive linemen JJ Hanne and Stephon Shivers. Five-star edge rusher Isaiah Gibson is also committed to UGA.

Kyle announced his scholarship offer from Georgia via social media.

Head coach Kirby Smart and Georgia have the nation’s No. 4 recruiting class in the country right now. UGA has 22 total commitments.
