Every Georgia football fan knows that with success in college football also comes the inevitable turnover through various channels.
After the 2021 national championship, the Georgia football team lost a record number of players to the NFL draft, and countless more to graduation and the transfer portal. While we may not see as many Dawgs taken in this year’s draft, there will still be a lot of holes to fill.
Some players, like Jalen Carter, declared for the draft immediately after the record-breaking win over TCU, while others such as Stetson Bennett are simply out of eligibility.
There have been some players that have reaffirmed their commitment to staying in Athens, including running back Kendall Milton, and defensive tackle Nazir Stackhouse.
So, who’s going to be leaving the Georgia football team this year? We’ll track the roster churn below.
