Kentucky Prepares Jordan Lovett for Lengthy Jalen Geiger Absence

Kentucky is not optimistic starting safety Jalen Geiger will be available for the foreseeable future. He suffered a left knee injury on an illegal crack-back block in the first half at Florida. Geiger did not appear on the Wildcats’ week three depth chart.

“We will do some more evaluations,” Mark Stoops said Monday. “But again, as I said after the game, it doesn’t look good. It looks like it’s it’s an injury that will keep him out.”

Jalen Geiger, redshirt junior, from Columbia, SC., played in all 13 games in 2021, tallying a pick six at Vanderbilt and recording a crucial tackle for loss in a victory over his hometown team.
