Georgia transfer named as All-American
Former Georgia Bulldogs center Clay Webb was named a second-team All-American by USA TODAY. Webb, who plays offensive guard for the Jacksonville State Gamecocks, is a former five-star recruit. Webb joined the Georgia football program in 2019. He stuck with the Bulldogs for a few seasons before transferring after the 2021 season. In 2022, Webb started in seven games for Jacksonville State. The 6-foot-3, 290-pound offensive guard showed significant improvement the following season. Webb’s 2023 season ended with him being named first-team Conference USA. He anchored a Gamecocks offensive line that set a Conference USA record of 522 rushing yards against Louisiana Tech. Webb has a good chance to be selected in the 2025 NFL draft. He revitalized his career at Jacksonville State after not seeing much playing time at Georgia. The Bulldogs return a stacked offensive guard room that includes first-team All-American Tate Ratledge. However, Georgia could use Webb at center. Georgia’s projected starting center, Jared Wilson, is battling injuries ahead of the Bulldogs’ season opener.
