Georgia's Michael Jackson Seeks New Opportunities in the Transfer Portal

Jackson's Time at Georgia

The 6-foot-1, 210-pound receiver never managed to establish a prominent role within the Georgia offense. He primarily focused on special teams, playing as a kickoff returner against Tennessee and Georgia Tech. Despite his efforts, Jackson appeared in only three games this season and has 47 career receptions for 508 receiving yards and five touchdowns.

His inability to crack Georgia's wide receiver rotation led to career-low numbers during his time with the Bulldogs. However, this situation might work in his favor as he should be able to redshirt since he played in only three games in 2024.

The Transfer Portal Timeline

The transfer portal opens on Dec. 9 and will remain open through Dec. 28. Jackson is not alone in this decision as he joins cornerback Julian Humphrey as the first two Georgia players to announce their intentions to transfer. This indicates a potential shift in the team's roster and dynamics.

For Jackson, this is a crucial time as he looks to find a new home where he can showcase his skills and potentially have a more significant impact. The transfer portal offers him the opportunity to explore different programs and coaching staffs.
