Former Georgia kicker Rodrigo Blankenship is back
Former Georgia Bulldogs kicker Rodrigo Blankenship is back to playing pro football. Blankenship is playing in the United Football League for the 2025 season.
Blankenship and the St. Louis Battlehawks open their 2025 season against the Houston Roughnecks at 8:00 p.m. ET on Friday, March 28 (televised on FOX). Blankenship last appeared in an NFL game during the 2023 preseason with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he has continued to work on his craft. He is hoping to perform well and draw NFL interest.
Blankenship's last career NFL regular season game came in 2022 with the Arizona Cardinals before he suffered an injury.
