Wide Receiver

Starting X receiver: Adonai Mitchell
Backup: Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint

Starting slot receiver: Kearis Jackson
Backup: Dominick Blaylock

Starting Z receiver: Ladd McConkey
Backup: Arian Smith

While losing Jermaine Burton to Alabama is going to sting for the Bulldogs wide receiver room, there is still plenty of talent and experience here. Adonai Mitchell came up with a catch that Georgia fans will be remembering forever and he is going to be a starter next season.

Kearis Jackson is going to be back and he has been making plays for the last two seasons. He can help replace some of the downfield speed that Burton had.

Ladd McConkey had a nice season a year ago and should be ready to be even better in 2022. The intriguing guys for this group are the ones battling back from injury. Dominick Blaylock and Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint were both hurt during the 2020 season and were not able to get on the field in 2021. Both those guys are good players and should be ready to contribute in 2022.

Arian Smith suffered a season-ending injury last season and he is perhaps the fastest receiver that Georgia has. Getting him back healthy would be huge.
