Last week, the Georgia Bulldogs made easy work of the UMass Minutemen 59-21, but the win came at a cost. Defensive tackle Christen Miller suffered a dislocated shoulder in the first half .
Georgia head coach Kirby Smart addressed the media on Monday with injury updates on Miller, along with other injured Georgia Bulldogs including running back Trevor Etienne, wide receiver Dillon Bell, running back Branson Robinson, and running back Roderick Robinson II.
Robinson II has been out since the beginning of the season with turf toe.
“Yes, he’s banged up. Didn’t do much yesterday, and don’t know what he’s going to be able to do today. It wasn’t your typical Monday,” said Smart on Christen Miller.
“(Wide receivers) Anthony Evans and Dillon Bell were able to go and do something yesterday and practice. We will see if they are available, I’m hopeful,” said Smart.
“Branson Robinson and Roderick Robinson have both looked good in the last few weeks. They have been running and have reached good speeds. We will ramp them up today a bit, we are excited about them getting back to work,” added Smart.
Georgia’s running back depth is shallow right now. Even though Carson Beck is playing well, getting back Etienne, Branson Robinson, or Roderick Robinson would help Nate Frazier and the fluidity of the Bulldogs’ offense.
Georgia still has two games of the season left. The Bulldogs play Georgia Tech, who played Georgia close last year. Georgia also plays in the SEC championship game against the winner between Texas and Texas A&M. To fend off an upset-minded Georgia Tech team and to win the SEC championship game, the Bulldogs will need as many hands on deck as possible.
