Eddie Gran happy with progress of Sawyer Smith

The Kentucky Wildcats should have both of its top quarterbacks available to play vs. the Georgia Bulldogs.

While Lynn Bowden is likely to start, UK should have Sawyer Smith able to go, as the junior graduate transfer has made a lot of progress in his recovery from shoulder and wrist injuries.

Smith got much of the previous two weeks off to rest and recover while Bowden was worked in as the first-team quarterback leading up to UK’s clash with Arkansas. While he was healthy enough to play, Smith still wasn’t completely healed, so he was kept on the bench for the entire game.
