  08/07/21 - TE Arik GilbertrSr/2025, Nebraska

  George Pickens was the top target down the stretch with back-to-back 100-yard plus receiving games, but he's sidelined after ACL surgery. LSU transfer Arik Gilbert joins a pass-catching group that includes receivers Kearis Jackson, Jermaine Burton and Arian Smith, 6-foot-7, 280-pound Darnell Washington and John Fitzpatrick at tight end and running back James Cook. That's before we even get to spring game star receiver Adonai Mitchell. "There's more guys on this team than you normally see that can be in the game that's no different than your 1s," Daniels said.

Georgia is giving the 6-foot-5, 248-pound Gilbert the chance to play wide receiver like he wanted, but how that translates to practice will be telling. "We don't get a chance to be on the field with him in the position conditioning stuff so we're going to have to find that out in fall camp," Smart told WJOX in Birmingham. "He's bigger than your average wideout certainly." Gilbert worked this summer with both receivers coach Cortez Hankton and tight ends coach Todd Hartley, according to Daniels. "He takes time to learn the signals and picks it up really well," Daniels said. "He's got the skillset to play a lot of positions in the game of football. You try out and put your playmakers where they have the best chance to make plays. Wherever that is for him I'm sure they'll figure it out." - Athens Daily Banner
