Fitzpatrick made a name for himself in the trenches as an in-line blocking tight end at Georgia. The Atlanta native played four seasons in Athens, recording 17 catches for 200 yards and one touchdown.

Fitzpatrick joined our podcast ‘UGA Football Live with J.C. Shelton’ this spring to talk about his experience playing through two broken feet to finish out the Bulldogs championship season.
