Kirby Smart Updates Georgia Injury Report

Kirby Smart will need every bit of help he can get on the injury front, Monday he provided an update on the status of some of his impact players.

Georgia Football head coach Kirby Smart is heading back to the SEC Championship Game for the fourth time in five seasons, a feat that has never been done at Georgia. In fact, only Alabama and Florida have done such a thing since the championship game's inception in 1992. 

Smart met with the media Monday afternoon as the Bulldogs are set to take on the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday, with the winner likely taking the top seed in the College Football Playoff. 

He will need every bit of help he can get on the injury front, Monday he provided an update on the status of some of his impact players. 

Smart on Jamaree Salyer (foot) 

"Jamaree is going to practice today. Had a setback last week, I thought he was going to play against Georgia Tech. If he is healthy, I feel good about Jamaree" 

Smart on Kendall Milton (Knee) 

"Hopeful to get him back. We are going to try to work him back in some this week. It's a confidence issue with an MCL. I know he looked a lot better on Wednesday than he did when he was warming up on Saturday." 

Smart on Kearis Jackson (Ribs) 

"We think Kearis is going to be fine. We'll see how he plays and goes out this week." 

Smart on Chris Smith (Knee) 

"We're hopeful he's able to go today. He did some running yesterday but I won't know more until I see him at practice."
