ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia will have its hands full with Ole Miss tight end Evan Engram this Saturday.
Engram, a senior, has proven to be a competent replacement for departed wide receiver Laquon Treadwell so far this season as the Rebels’ primary receiving target.
Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart saw firsthand what Engram can do in each of the past three seasons as defensive coordinator at Alabama.
“He’s talented,” Smart said. “He runs like a receiver. They put him in spots where he can get vertical down the field. The guy runs by DBs, and he’s a tight end.
