Former Georgia WR Jeremiah Holloman declares for NFL draft

Former Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver Jeremiah ‘JJ’ Holloman is entering the draft

Former Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver Jeremiah ‘JJ’ Holloman is declaring for the 2023 NFL draft. Holloman transferred from Florida International to Tennessee State for the 2022 college football season.

The 6-foot-2, 220-pound receiver caught 33 passes for 353 yards at Tennessee State this year.

Holloman intended to transfer to Liberty for the 2021 college football season, but he was unable to work out differences with FIU. Holloman hauled in eight passes for 108 yards and a touchdown in 2020 for FIU in its pandemic-shortened season.

Holloman last played for Georgia in 2018, when he developed good chemistry with quarterback Jake Fromm. Holloman was in line to be Georgia’s top receiver in 2019, but he was dismissed from the team. Georgia never quite adapted to his absence that season.

Holloman was expected to be Georgia’s No. 1 wide receiver for the 2019 season, but he was dismissed from the team. Georgia never quite adapted to his absence that season.

Now, Holloman will have a new chance to prove himself with Tennessee State. Former NFL legend Eddie George is now the head coach at Tennessee State.

Tennessee State has notable 2022 games against Jackson State, Middle Tennessee, and Eastern Washington.
