Here is the Jan. 15 edition of The Daily Recap presented by My Perfect Franchise.
Two more decisions
On Tuesday, two key players from the 2024 roster decided whether they would return for another season or not.
Tight end Oscar Delp announced he will return for another season. Delp started all 14 games this past season, catching 24 passes for 243 yard and four touchdowns. Delp's best game of the season came against Tennessee, when he caught four passes for 56 yards and two touchdowns.
Running back Trevor Etienne announced he is heading to the NFL. Missing four games this season due to either suspension or injuries, Etienne totaled 122 carries for 609 yards and nine touchdowns.
Tuggle's turn is coming
Receiver Nitro Tuggle may have an opening to see more playing time this fall. Dominic Lovett and Arian Smith are gone, leaving a lot of snaps up for grabs. Tuggle, who briefly entered the transfer portal before deciding to come back to Georgia, said he's ready for the opportunity.
“I feel like I definitely made some progress in practice,” Tuggle said. “Whether it was going against scouts or just going against our ones on defense. I just take advantage of that and all the reps I get so I can get better and be ready for my time.”
Receivers coach James Coley noted that Tuggle had to deal with not seeing the field too much as a freshman, but that ultimately he did a good job biding his time.
“It can be frustrating when you've had a lot of success and you come into an environment where it's highly competitive,” Coley said. “But he's done a good job fighting through those frustrations and he's done a really good job with, you know, refocusing with a lot of help from everybody else, too.”
