The former Georgia standout helped his NFL draft stock thanks to an impressive week at the Senior Bowl. Rosemy-Jacksaint scored a 29-yard touchdown in the Senior Bowl on a contested catch.

The senior receiver has proved to be a reliable target for Georgia football and rarely dropped passes. Rosemy-Jacksaint is also an excellent run blocker. He finished his four-year Georgia  career with 1,028 yards and seven touchdowns.

Georgia WR Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint declares for NFL draft

Georgia football wide receiver Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint is entering the NFL draft

Georgia is losing another receiver to the draft as Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint announced on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he was entering the 2024 NFL draft. Rosemy-Jacksaint was a senior leader for the Bulldogs and was a very reliable target for the Bulldogs offense.

Rosemy-Jacksaint came to the Bulldogs in 2020, but suffered a gruesome leg injury after scoring a touchdown against Florida. He was able to rehab and comeback from that serious injury to help the Bulldogs in the coming seasons.

He caught 34 passes for 535 yards and four touchdowns this season. He finishes his four-year career with 1,028 yards and seven touchdowns. Even though he was a late bloomer, Rosemy-Jacksaint served as a valuable receiving option for the Bulldogs. Additionally, Rosemy-Jacksaint is an excellent run blocker.

Losing Rosemy-Jacksaint will hurt the Georgia passing attack, but multiple receivers returning should help the Bulldogs. Dillon Bell, Dominic Lovett and Rara Thomas will share receiving duties as Rosemy-Jacksaint and Ladd McConkey leaving for the NFL.

We wish him the best at the next level.

Turner puts Michigan, Alabama, Georgia, Oklahoma, and Florida in his top five. Turner will likely be another talented recruit head outside the state of Florida for college.

Turner is one of three juniors to make all-state defense as a junior. It’s even more impressive considering the elite talent in the state:

Dawg fans hope Turner will consider being the latest Florida recruit to come north to Athens. Either way it is looking like he’ll be another talented recruit to leave the Sunshine State.
