ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Georgia sophomore wide receiver Nitro Tuggle and freshman offensive lineman Marques Easley were suspended indefinitely from all team activities on Thursday after Tuggle's arrest for speeding and reckless driving.
Athens-Clarke County Jail records show Tuggle was arrested early Thursday on misdemeanor charges of speeding and reckless driving. Tuggle was released after posting bond.
The Athens Banner-Herald reported Easley was involved in a vehicle crash on Monday night.
Georgia coach Kirby Smart has said he has struggled to find ways to convince his players to avoid speeding and reckless driving.
A crash killed a player and a recruiting staffer in January 2023, shortly after the team celebrated its second straight national championship.
