Georgia football injury updates: WR Dominick Blaylock ‘close’ to returning for games
ATHENS — Georgia receiver Dominick Blaylock could be back on the field sooner than later, based on an optimistic update from Coach Kirby Smart on Tuesday afternoon.
Comments
This is great news on a rainy night in Georgia!
Great news about Dom Blaylock !! I have full confidence and trust in Ron Courson. He will not deliberately put Dom in a bad situation. Once Dom Blaylock is fully ready to play Ron will know it and Blaylock will know it. Getting over the psych part will be every bit as hard maybe harder than the actual physical injury. I’m not a doctor by a long shot my only concern would be if GOD FORBID he tore that knee yet again would it put him in a position of losing the ability to use that leg just to Walk normally ?? I have No clue. But IF it could as much as I hate to say it and I Really Really do, I’d rather Dom retire from the game. The Dawgs could certainly use him even if he could reach 90% of the player he was ( he was a pretty dawg gone good receiver !!) IF he can come back but man I sure wouldn’t want to see this young man ruined for Life !! And I whole heartedly say that about Any player on Any team, no matter how heated the rivalry. Like my fellow Dawg fan “stone” said in a very eloquent way “ there IS life After football”. So IF he can come back and HE (after hopefully Very in-depth conversation with Ron Courson) feels it’s worth the risk man I’ll sure be cheering for him !! But I hope he weighs the idea very very carefully !! Praying for you Dom Blaylock, and wishing you the Very best regardless of what decision you make.
Would be nice to have Blaylock (and/or Gilbert) for this game. But UGA/CKS will never rush a player back from injury. After this game they can take their time with Blaylock (and Gilbert) as it is likely they won't need either until they play FL. If the young WR's learn the O and run the right routes/adjustments, JTD will get them the ball.
Don’t mean to hijack this thread, Sorry. But if our beloved Dawgs could eek out a W vs. Clemson there is HUGE potential they will get stronger and stronger (with a proviso that the ole injury big Stay Away !!) in the coming weeks as many of these guys injuries seem short term with exceptions like Pickens and Blaylock. Though Blaylock Might be back sooner rather than later. I’ve read that even George Pickens might be back by mid to late Nov. !! If the Dawgs get most if not all these players back and they are at or close to 100% then Look Out College Football World, cause this will be a Very dangerous Dawgs team !! Go Dawgs !! Go put a W on Clemson !! Then stay focused and all Dawgs eyes on the prize !!
Great news about Blaylock. Proud of him and prayers he’s back soon and stays healthy. If he does, I know he’ll have one heck of a season.
I'm beginning to think that Gilbert wasn't gonna start at the beginning of the season and he can't handle it. I have come to accept that he won't play a single snap this season for us.
Oh man, just because of how long it's been I just assumed he was at full speed. Good luck Blaylock, this fan hasn't forgotten about you.
Eerily similar career track to Zeus with the injuries he's sustained. I'm a big fan of Dom and hope he can get back in and contribute this year. This Dawg fan will never forget his TD against Auburn on The Plains in 2019 from my perch near the top of Jordan-Hare Stadium. Go Dawgs!
Good to finally hear about some progress for Blaylock. The silence has been deafening.
Getting his confidence and real game catching ability back will be key. That's going to be the final hurdle, and until he at least gets into a full contact scrimmage we won't know whether he's 100% back or not. Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.
