Georgia Bulldogs star tight end Brock Bowers announced Tuesday that he will be declaring for the 2024 NFL Draft.
The decision doesn’t come as much of a surprise, as the junior tight end is considered to be a lock for the first round of April’s draft, and could be selected as high as the top 10, or even top five, according to early projections.
Bowers penned a lengthy farewell message for the Bulldogs, in which he announced his decision to turn professional while thanking everyone from his family to the fans in Athens for their support throughout his three seasons with the program.

It’s a common sight to see NFL coaches fire up their players after a big game with stirring speeches. Less common is the sight of a coach smearing blood across his face and getting called “War Daddy.”

Carolina’s chairman is reported by Forbes to have a net worth of $20.

J.J. McCarthy, a player known for his pregame mediation, was caught by cameras soaking in every bit of Michigan’s come-from-behind overtime Rose Bowl win over Alabama long after the final whistle.
Long after the fanfare of the on-field celebration ended, the standout quarterback walked around a near-empty Rose Bowl Stadium and explored the end zone.
After reaching the middle of the Crimson Red Alabama end zone, the junior signal-caller crouched down on top of the Maize and Blue Michigan confetti taking in every moment of the thrilling victory.
