UGA football player card: QB Nathan Priestley

Nathan Priestley, Quarterback (#9):

Class: Redshirt freshman

Height: 6-4

Weight: 205 pounds

Hometown: Los Angeles, California

High School: Loyola High School

Georgia Bulldogs redshirt freshman quarterback Nathan Priestley appeared in two games as a freshman. He was an unranked recruit coming into Athens. He captained his football team at Loyola High School in Los Angeles, California.

Priestley played a lot of scout team in 2019, but he did see some game action against Murray State and Arkansas State. He completed one pass for two yards against Murray State. He had a team low (among players who attempted passes) of one incomplete pass and didn’t throw any interceptions.

He was one of three UGA quarterbacks to attempt a pass in 2019. Priestley was able to redshirt since he played in under four games. He’ll compete for the back up role behind Jamie Newman in 2020 with D’Wan Mathis, Stetson Bennett, and Carson Beck.

Check out his tape from high school:
