Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Malik Herring gave Dan Lanning’s defense a big boost when he decided to return for his senior season. As a junior, Herring played in 12 games and recorded 29 tackles.

Herring was a key piece in Georgia’s top rated 2019 rushing and scoring defense. He also frequented the opposing backfield racking up 18 pressures in the process.

Herring has been a big-factor against the Florida Gators. Over his career he has seven tackles, five QB pressures, and a forced fumble against the Gators.

Georgia fans should expect Herring to start at 3-4 defensive end for the Dawgs next season. Herring came to Georgia as a four-star prospect and is living up to his billing. He’s seen lots of playing time since he was a freshman.

Watch out for Herring when the Dawgs take on the Gators! Herring will look to bump up his NFL Draft stock with a big senior season. Best of luck to Malik.
