The Georgia Bulldogs are gearing up for their season opener against the Clemson Tigers, set to take place inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. With only 30 days until the ACC matchup, the Bulldogs are facing some roster uncertainties that need addressing before the Noon Kickoff.
Defensively, the Bulldogs boast a formidable unit on paper, but there are several position battles that will unfold over the next month. Let’s take a closer look at some key positions:
Nose Tackle
Nazir Stackhouse
Jah Jarrett
While the Bulldogs may lack a player of Jordan Davis’ caliber, they are actively searching for one. Nazir Stackhouse, despite receiving NFL Draft Grades last season, is back on the roster. Sophomore Jah Jarrett has shown significant improvement and could be a strong contender for playing time.
Defensive Tackle
Warren Brinson
Xavier McCleod
Christen Miller
**Jordan Hall***
The competition at defensive tackle is expected to be fierce, with Brinson likely leading the pack. Xavier McCleod, a transfer from South Carolina, showcased his skills during the spring game. Christen Miller and Jordan Hall also present promising options for the Bulldogs.
Defensive End
**Mykel Williams***
Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
Gabe Harris
Joseph Jonah-Ajonye
Mykel Williams has made headlines for his shift to the JACK position, although he will still see time at defensive end. Alongside Williams, players like Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins and Gabe Harris bring disruptive qualities to the table. Watch out for Joseph Jonah-Ajonye, who impressed as a freshman during spring practice.

STAR
Joenel Aguero
