INJURY NEWS: Georgia Bulldogs Face Setback as Starting OT Undergoes Surgery.

Monroe Freeling, the projected starting left tackle for the Georgia Bulldogs, had shoulder surgery, as reported by DawgsHQ. He is anticipated to be at his peak by the time the 2025 season begins, but his participation in spring practice remains uncertain.

Freeling is anticipated to take on the role of starting left tackle after participating in five games in 2023, and with the other four starters heading to the NFL draft, he is expected to be a key presence and offer stability.

Freeling signed with Georgia as a four-star prospect from the 2023 recruiting class. It’s remarkable to witness Freeling starting for Georgia as a younger player. Freeling had difficulty in several matches, particularly against Notre Dame.

Injuries posed a major challenge for Georgia’s offensive line in 2024, as Tate Ratledge sustained an ankle injury while Earnest Greene III dealt with an upper body injury. The recent injury enabled Freeling to secure the starting left tackle position.

Georgia might either evaluate its internal options or seek a transfer portal addition for the offensive line after losing a significant number of starters this offseason. The Bulldogs aim for their 2025 offensive line to come together cohesively as a unit this spring.
