Former Georgia OLB has chance to win third straight championship

Former Georgia Bulldogs outside linebacker Robert Beal has a chance to win a third straight championship in Super Bowl 58. Beal won national championships with Georgia football during the 2021 and 2022 college football seasons. Now, he will have a chance to win a title with the San Francisco 49ers following the 2023 NFL regular season.

Beal is having a solid rookie season for the 49ers, who will face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. Beal was the No. 173 pick in the 2023 NFL draft (fifth-round). The 49ers really valued his ability to quickly accelerate following the snap.

Beal is one of five former Georgia Bulldogs set to play in the Super Bowl. San Fransisco 49ers tight end Charlie Woerner and wide receiver Chris Conley are the former Dawgs representing the NFC in the Super Bowl. Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman and defensive end Malik Herring are former Bulldogs representing the AFC.

Robert Beal probably won’t see many snaps in the Super Bowl. Beal recorded five tackles and a sack as a rookie. He saw most of his action late in the season, but has not played much in the postseason.
