Former UGA cornerback transferring to Big Ten program

A former Georgia defensive back has found a new home.

Cornerback Juwuan Briscoe, who started four games for the Bulldogs in 2016, announced on his Twitter account that he will transfer to Rutgers. Briscoe has apparently visited Rutgers recently as the announcement was accompanied with a video of him in a Scarlet Knights jersey posing in a photoshoot.

I can't thank God enough for allowing me to to do what I love again! Proud to say that I am 100% Committed to the University of Rutgers #B1G pic.twitter.com/2bqxMDCRjc

Briscoe opened the 2016 season as a Georgia starter but was benched in favor of Deandre Baker before the Bulldogs' fifth game against Tennessee.
