If a Georgia fan was asked during the spring to name wide receivers that they thought would be contributors on the 2021 offense, Ladd McConkey probably would not be high on that list. In reality, he might not be on it at all.However, with all of the injuries the Bulldogs have sustained so far, McConkey found himself playing in Georgia’s most anticipated game in years. The redshirt freshman has gone from scout team to playing in just a year.
