Georgia DB Dan Jackson ejected, faces suspension

Georgia Bulldogs defensive back Dan Jackson was ejected from the Texas Longhorns game for targeting. Since Jackson’s penalty came in the second half, he will be suspended for the first half of Georgia’s next game.

Who does Georgia play next? The Bulldogs have a bye in Week 9 before they play the Florida Gators on Nov. 2.

Georgia played freshman defensive back KJ Bolden more snaps in Jackson’s absence. The Bulldogs will likely start Bolden and Malaki Starks at safety in the first half against Florida. Bolden has already played a bunch of snaps this season.

Entering the Texas game, Jackson had 31 total tackles, one interception and a fumble recovery. Jackson’s combination of production and experience will be missed against Florida.
