ATHENS, Georgia -- While watching film of a recent Georgia practice, Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart noticed a red blur running behind one of the plays. The player, who was wearing a red jersey because he was injured, was running fast -- very fast.
"It was about 20 yards back behind the play," Smart said. "It was a guy flying across the field. I thought, 'Who is that?'"
When Smart slowed the play down, he realized it was injured tight end Brock Bowers, who had undergone TightRope surgery on his left ankle only a couple of weeks earlier.
