Injury report: Georgia football defensive line back in business

ATHENS — Georgia football coach Kirby Smart provided an injury update on Friday, and the news couldn’t be much better on the health front.

Most notably, the UGA defensive line is back in business after several missed spring drills on account on offseason surgery.

“Everybody is cleared on the D-Line,” Smart said. “Julian (Rochester) is going to be cleared today but we are not in pads.

“Were we in pads and tackling, he still had some room to improve there to be in full contact.”

But, Smart indicated, defensive linemen Michail Charter, David Marshall and Trezman Marshall are back and ready to go.

On offense, tailback Zamir White was finally cleared and could start getting tackled as early as the Aug. 10 scrimmage.
