Kirby Smart talks D’Andre Swift ahead of Sugar Bowl matchup with Baylor

Georgia football coach Kirby Smart met with members of the media in New Orleans Tuesday before the Bulldogs’ second-straight Sugar Bowl on Wednesday.

Junior running back D’Andre Swift, who has been playing injured since the Georgia Tech game, is going to try and give it a go tomorrow, despite interest in the NFL Draft.

Swift has not made an official decision on the draft just yet, but here’s what Smart had to say on the running back’s status for game itself.

“I don’t know, we’re going to wait and see.”

“He’s competed, he’s done everything we’ve asked him to do. If he feels like he’s able to go, and go at 100 percent, then we’re going to use him. He’s done more this last week in practice than he did before the SEC Championship Game, that’s for certain, so excited to see where he goes.

The Bulldogs have been playing a bit of hush mouth on player’s status of late, but we will find out who exactly plays when toe meets leather Wednesday in New Orleans.
