Report: Kenny McIntosh arrested on misdemeanor charges, accompanied in vehicle by George Pickens

Kenny McIntosh was arrested Sunday morning on misdemeanor charges. Dawgnation reports that George Pickens was in the car with him at the time.

Georgia running back Kenny McIntosh was arrested Sunday morning on misdemeanor charges of reckless driving and for failure to use a safety belt.

Per Mike Griffith of DawgNation, McIntosh was involved in an accident at around 4:30 a.m. in Athens. The report states that wide receiver George Pickens was in the car with McIntosh at the time, and neither were injured in the accident.

McIntosh was booked at 5:45 a.m. on Sunday, according to the Athens-Clarke County jail log. He was released on bail at 6:45 a.m. on bonds of $500 and $1,500.

The players were returning home after attending a pre-draft celebration with teammates in downtown Athens.

As Dean Legge of DawgPost points out, it’s unlikely that McIntosh will miss any playing time because of this. Kirby Smart and UGA do not typically dish out game suspensions for misdemeanor charges.

The rising senior from Fort Lauderdale, who was a 4-star member in Georgia’s 2019 recruiting class, is coming off a breakout junior season. McIntosh rushed for 328 yards and recorded 242 yards receiving with five total touchdowns last year.

With James Cook and Zamir White off to the NFL, it’s expected to be McIntosh and Kendall Milton leading Georgia’s rushing attack next season.
