WR Lawrence Cager speaks on UGA’s receivers, leadership

With Mecole Hardman, Riley Ridley, Terry Godwin, and Jeremiah Holloman all departed, it goes without saying that there will be immense pressure on UGA’s new receivers to replace all of that talent lost this offseason.

Receiver Lawrence Cager, who was with Miami for four years including one as a redshirt, sounds ready to embrace the challenge ahead for the position group.

“Really for the receiving room aspect, me, Tyler (Simmons), all the receivers, especially me and Tyler being seniors came in the mindset of ‘It’s on us,'” Cager told a group of reporters recently. “Whether it’s blocking for the running backs, making plays on the perimeter, special teams. It’s on us. We come with that mindset and we’re coming to attack every day like it’s a game.”

If UGA’s receiving corps adopts Cager’s mentality heading into the season, they should have no problem picking up right where last year’s group left off.
