Two Georgia Bulldogs enjoyed standout games during Saturday’s Senior Bowl Saturday afternoon.
Wide receiver Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint scored the game’s only touchdown for the American Team, with former Bulldog Tykee Smith earning American Team MVP honors after breaking up three passes.
The National Team beat the American Team, 16-7.
“My goal is to show them that I can play a lot of positions,” Smith told UGASports earlier this week. “I want to show that what I did at Georgia can translate into playing that high safety, that I can play there full-time.”
Former Bulldogs William Mote, Ladd McConkey, and Javon Bullard also played in the game.
Running back Daijon Edwards took part in workouts during the week at Hancock Stadium on the campus of South Alabama but did not play.
Rosemy-Jacksaint’s score came on a 29-yard pass from former South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler.
The play capped off a solid week for the Florida native, who earned praise from many in attendance, including Senior Bowl Executive Director Jim Nagy.
“It gives me some confidence, knowing the work that I’ve been putting in. People are starting to notice,” Rosemy-Jacksaint said Wednesday. “I really just came out here trying to get some work in. I’m out here with the best of the best. But it’s been fun. I’m enjoying going through the process.”
It was a good week for the Bulldogs.
On Friday, McConkey was voted the top wide receiver for the American Team while Bullard was voted the top safety for the American Teams.
