John Fitzpatrick, Tight End (#86):
Class: Redshirt sophomore
Height: 6-6
Weight: 230 pounds
Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia
High School: Marist High School
Georgia Bulldogs tight end John Fitpatrick played in eleven games last season. He recorded one catch against Murray State. The Marist High School product played in two games during the 2018 season. He was able to redshirt during this season.
Fitzpatrick will have a change to see more snaps next season. He may be the best blocking tight end on Georgia’s roster. The Dawgs are replacing Eli Wolff and 49ers draft selection Charlie Woerner.
Georgia added Florida State transfer Tre’ McKitty and 2020 five-star TE Darnell Washington this offseason. They figure to compete with Fitzpatrick for playing time.
McKitty racked up 520 yards over the last two seasons at FSU.
Here’s a look back at when he committed to the University of Georgia:

He’ll face a battle to start, but should play in every game this season when healthy.
