Surgery To Sideline Bowers

Related Topics: Brock Bowers

The toughest stretch of Georgia’s season awaits after this week’s open date with Florida, Mizzou, Ole Miss, and Tennessee looming.

That span just got a lot tougher with Monday morning’s news that all-everything tight end and potential Heisman Trophy candidate Brock Bowers has a high ankle sprain and will require surgery.

Though UGA has not released details on a timeline of recovery, you’d have to figure a 4-to-6-week timeline. That means that Bowers might, with luck be back for the Tennessee game and also back for Georgia Tech and the SEC Championship Game, should Georgia make it there.
