Georgia wide receiver Arian Smith suffered a broken leg in practice on Wednesday that will potentially keep him out for the remainder of the season. Smith will require surgery on his leg.
This season, Smith has caught three passes for 102 yards and two touchdowns. Smith played in only four games as a true freshman due surgery on a broken wrist and then another on a torn meniscus. After a few injuries during the offseason, Smith missed multiple games this year with a lower-leg contusion.
Injuries to the wide receiver position is nothing new for Georgia this season. Both George Pickens (ACL) and Dominick Blaylock (ACL, hamstring) are yet to take the field this year. Jermaine Burton, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint and Justin Robinson have all missed at least one game as well with their own injuries.
Here are the Twitter reactions to Georgia losing another wide receiver to injury this season.
Arian Smith has caught five passes for the Bulldogs.
Three of those have gone for touchdowns.
Losing him is a blow for #Georgia.https://t.co/8W0wIWF42p pic.twitter.com/nPzaymv6e5

Arian Smith is 100% a guy who takes the top off the defense…
However he has only played 21 snaps on offense this year. This doesn’t change UGA’s offense as we currently know it, but it does change what many thought it might become by the CFP https://t.co/Xof80aN84c

Sad news to report, Arian Smith suffered a broken leg in this weeks practice and he's more than likely out for the remainder of the 2021 season.
This sucks so hard for Smith, he's been hurt all season but he's worked so hard to get on the field
