Georgia tight end John FitzPatrick apparently played more than half of last season with broken bones in both of his feet, head coach Kirby Smart revealed at UGA’s Pro Day on Wednesday.
FitzPatrick may not have received the same level of fanfare as a Brock Bowers or Darnell Washington, but his display of toughness and grit en route to the Dawgs winning it all should not go unnoticed.
And Smart made sure the redshirt junior tight end received proper recognition on Wednesday, speaking on FitzPatrick’s toughness prior to discussing any other player.
