Sony Michel looking to shine once more on biggest of stages

Sony Michel has a history of shining under the brightest of lights.

At Georgia, it was a game-winning overtime touchdown in the Rose Bowl to send the Bulldogs to the national championship in the 2017-18 season. Fast forward one week, and Michel would end his UGA career with a loss to Alabama in Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium but left as the Bulldogs’ third all-time leading rusher.

A few months later, Michel, a Florida-born star of Haitian descendants, heard his name called with the 31st overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft by the New England Patriots.
