Isaac Nauta is the youngest contributor in Georgia’s tight ends meeting room, yet he’s treated like he’s one of the oldest.

He endured the learning curve as every other freshman had but his circumstance was unique in terms of being placed into immediate game action, receiving a full workload and being a go-to for his classmate and quarterback Jacob Eason

It seemed easy for Nauta as the team’s third-leading receiver. He logged his reception in the season opener against North Carolina and finished the campaign with 361 yards and three scores.

Nauta will openly indicate that his freshman season was far from easy, but he has a contagious confidence that is seen by others and brings him into a more-advanced team role.
