Senior defensive lineman Malik Herring returns for one last season as a Georgia Bulldog.
Herring, a former 4-star recruit out of Mary Pearsons High School in Forsyth, Georgia, looks to be a leader on one of college football’s best defenses in 2020.
Seeing as how Georgia rotates so many of its defensive lineman, it’s difficult to notice the individual impact these big guys have in the trenches.
Luckily we have Pro Football Focus (PFF) to analyze each players’ impact and assign them a player grade. According to PFF, Herring is considered the SEC’s top returning defensive lineman and the third highest graded returning defender overall in the league.
In three years, Herring has appeared in 31 games. Last season, he accounted for 18 quarterback pressures, which was the third most on the team.
