Jalon Walker

Georgia Football added a few linebackers in their 2022 class that could see time this season, with Walker as arguably the biggest name of the group.

Walker comes to Athens as a four-star prospect out of Salisbury High School in North Carolina where the true freshman was considered as one of the top linebackers in the 2022 class, as well as a Top 50 player nationally. Walker is likely the name to know at linebacker in Georgia’s 2022 class when it comes to playing time this season, and could easily be in the Bulldogs rotation at inside linebacker.

Rian Davis

While not in the Bulldogs 2022 class, Davis is one of the notable names returning for Georgia at inside linebacker this season.

A former four-star prospect in the 2019 class, Davis has seen limited time with the Bulldogs across the past three seasons, collecting a combined two tackles during that span. The redshirt junior is likely a depth option for the Bulldogs this season, one who could still see a notable amount of time in 2022.
