Every Georgia Bulldog playing on in the NFL’s Wildcard round

Georgia Bulldogs will look to leave their stamp on the NFL’s postseason once again. Last season, UGA’s Sony Michel dominated the playoffs en route to a Super Bowl title. Who will be UGA player will help lead their team to a championship?

This year, there’s no Georgia Bulldog currently on a roster in the NFC. It’s quite surprising considering the number of Bulldogs in the NFL. That means no UGA players will suit up in Sunday’s Vikings at Saints contest or the Seahawks at Eagles game.

The AFC, however, is another story. On Saturday, Isaiah McKenzie will hope to help the Bills knock off the Houston Texans. McKenzie had 254 receiving yards on the season and is capable of shifting the dynamic of a game with one explosive play. The Texans don’t have any UGA players on their roster.

The Chiefs, who have a bye, feature rookie receiver Mecole Hardman heavily on special teams and pepper him into their passing game as well. Hardman is an explosive play waiting to happen. The Baltimore Ravens lack Georgia Bulldogs on their roster as well.

Saturday Night, Bulldog fans will be able to watch RB Sony Michel and the Patriots take on Ben Jones and the Tennessee Titans. Michel is undefeated in the playoffs in his young career. Fellow Bulldogs TE Ben Watson (173 receiving yards in 2019) and tackle Isaiah Wynn will accompany Michel. Center Ben Jones commanded a dominant Titan offensive line this year. Tennessee’s Derrick Henry led the NFL in rushing on the season.
