Kirby Smart updates status of injured Georgia OL

The Georgia Bulldogs have been without projected starting center Jared Wilson in recent practices. Wilson is missing important reps ahead of his first season as a starter.

“Jared’s doing well,” said Georgia head coach Kirby Smart. “He’s been dealing with Achilles tendonitis. He’s been great. He’s worked on the side. He’s been able to push, but he was able to do some things yesterday and continues to ramp up his exposure and ramp up his reps. So, he’s doing well.

Wilson has a chance to return to action for Georgia’s season opener against Clemson on Aug. 31. If Wilson is out, backup center Drew Bobo would  project to start. Georgia could also play Tate Ratledge at center and insert Micah Morris into the starting lineup.

The Dawgs will miss last season’s starting center, Sedrick Van Pran-Granger. Van Pran-Granger, who went in the 2024 NFL draft, was named the SEC’s top offensive lineman for his efforts in 2023.
