Jonathan Ledbetter asserts leadership role on Georgia's defense: 'When he speaks, people listen' | Columbus Ledger-Enquirer

Jonathan Ledbetter didn’t think his career would go this fast.

He came in as a young freshman and saw his elder teammates finishing their careers and thought it would take forever for him to reach that point. Now, being able to reflect on his past, Ledbetter wishes it could start over and do it once more.

Ledbetter thinks it’s crazy for him to be a senior and be called upon to lead a young defensive line that lost upperclassmen Trenton Thompson and John Atkins after last season. Some of Ledbetter’s leadership qualities come easily, but it’s a different story when he needs to make a correction on the practice field.
