Georgia Bulldogs cornerback Tyson Campbell came to Athens as a highly touted five-star recruit. Campbell helped lead American Heritage to a state championship in 2017.
Campbell is a key piece of UGA’s roster in 2020. If Campbell can step up, then Georgia will have two elite corners on the outside (Campbell would join Eric Stokes). Campbell has work to do before taking the starting job. Last season D.J. Daniel took over Campbell’s starting spot following the third game of the season.
Campbell is now a veteran and certainly has the talent to contribute to Georgia’s elite defense. Additionally, he missed five games last season with a turf toe injury. His position battle with D.J. Daniel will be one of Georgia’s most intriguing intra-squad competitions to start the 2020 season. Georgia has solid depth at cornerback either way.
