UGA transfer has the No. 11 most tackles in the country

Former Georgia Bulldogs walk-on safety Patrick Taylor has been very productive for the Jacksonville State Gamecocks through two games. Taylor has 24 total tackles to start the season, which is the No. 11 most tackles of any player in the country.

Unfortunately for Taylor and fellow Georgia transfers Clay Webb and Andrew Paul, Jacksonville State is 0-2 to start the season. The Gamecocks have a porous defense that has allowed over 50 points per game of the first two games of the season.

Patrick Taylor joined the Bulldogs as a preferred walk-on in 2020. He is listed at 5-foot-11, 170 pounds and played high school football at Johns Creek in Alpharetta, Georgia. Taylor played in three games and recorded three tackles in 2023 with Georgia, so he is being much more productive with Jacksonville State.

Former Georgia running back Andrew Paul has five carries for seven yards through two games with Jacksonville State, who will look to get back on track in Week 3 against Eastern Michigan.
