Former Georgia Bulldog great joins SEC Network

Former Georgia Bulldog standout Brandon Boykin will be joining ESPN’s SEC Network on the new show Thinking Out Loud this upcoming season. Boykin will be on the air next Monday after the opening week of SEC football.

Boykin played football at the University of Georgia from 2008-2011. He finished his career at UGA with nine interceptions. Boykin is one of the better cornerbacks in Georgia history.

Before attending Georgia, Boykin played high school football and basketball for Fayette County High School.

Following his career with the Georgia Bulldogs, Boykin was selected in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles. Boykin had an impressive season for the Eagles in 2013, where he intercepted six passes including a key pick against the Dallas Cowboys.

In 2015, Boykin was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a 5th round pick. Following time with Pittsburgh, Boykin had short stints for the Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, and Baltimore Ravens, where he frequently and unfortunately ended the season on injured reserve.

Now, Boykin will be an intriguing member of the SEC media. It’s always good to see a little Georgia Bulldog bias in the media. Georgia fans have enjoyed this for a longtime with former UGA star David Pollack.

Congratulations to Boykin, who should do well for the SEC Network. He announced the move via Twitter:
