BREAKING: Dan Jackson Likely Out for Season

Dan Jackson has suffered a potentially season ending injury during the practice leading up the matchup with the Florida Gators.
In this story:

Georgia will likely be without senior defensive back Dan Jackson for the rest of the season after reports surfaced that he suffered a stress fracture during practice during the lead-up to Saturday's contest with the Florida Gators. 

Jackson started most of the 2021 national championship season, though had been replaced as of late in the starting lineup by true freshman Malaki Starks. Though Jackson played a pivotal role in Georgia's dime package on 3rd down and obvious passing downs as well as a major contributor on special teams for the Bulldogs. 

Sources indicated it was Dan Jackson right foot that suffered a stress fracture and that he would undergo surgery by the end of the week most likely, causing him to miss the remainder of the season. 

Georgia will likely be without Jalen Carter as well Saturday against the Florida Gators. With starting linebacker Smael Mondon being questionable with an ankle injury as well.
