Georgia football added three players to its injury report on Wednesday, a day before it hosts No. 10 Ole Miss. The SEC released the first availability list for Saturday's game, which is set to begin at 7:30 p.m. Central Time.
Tight end Elyiss Williams, linebacker AJ Kruah, and defensive lineman Joseph Jonah-Ajonye are all listed as questionable. Williams suffered a lower leg injury during Georgia's 27-8 win over Florida. Kruah and Jonah-Ajonye have undisclosed injuries. All three players were ruled out of the Florida game and are expected to provide updates within two hours of the deadline.
Cornerback Ellis Robinson is not on the list, meaning he is expected to play. He left the Florida game with a knee injury and did not take the field in the second half. This season, Robinson has recorded two interceptions, five pass breakups, and 15 tackles.
Braylon Conley replaced Robinson in the second half of the win over Florida. Conley intercepted a pass during that time. The Bulldogs also have four other players on the injury report with status updates due. Wide receiver Isiah Canion is listed as probable with a knee injury. Running back Chauncey Bowens, wide receiver Thomas Blackshear, and defensive back Tyriq Green are all questionable.
Outside linebacker Amaris Williams is out for the game due to a knee injury. The injury list includes players who have been dealing with ailments for the entire season. Blackshear has missed games since a collarbone injury in September. Green has been out since an ankle injury in August. Bowens has missed time due to a foot injury. Canion has dealt with a knee issue since August.
The Bulldogs have played through injuries this season. Georgia played in the Florida game with multiple players listed as questionable or out. The team aims to field its best available lineup against Ole Miss at Sanford Stadium. The SEC requires teams to submit injury reports by 3:00 p.m. Central Time on the day of the game.
The next SEC availability report will be released closer to game time. Coaches will use the information to finalize starting lineups. The game is scheduled for Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Central Time.
