Top Recruit QB DJ Lagway Out for Georgia-Florida 'Cocktail Party' with Hamstring Injury
Five-star quarterback recruit DJ Lagway will miss the annual rivalry game between Georgia and Florida, known as the "Cocktail Party," due to a hamstring injury. The highly touted prospect, who is ranked as the No. 2 quarterback in the 2023 class, suffered the injury in practice last week.
Impact on Georgia's Offense
Lagway's absence will be a significant blow to Georgia's offense. The Bulldogs have been struggling to find consistency at the quarterback position this season, and Lagway was expected to provide a spark. With Lagway out, redshirt sophomore JT Daniels will likely get the start against the Gators.
Daniels has been inconsistent this season, but he does have a strong arm and a good understanding of the offense. He will need to play well against Florida's tough defense if Georgia wants to win the game.
Lagway's Future
Lagway is still expected to be a major contributor to Georgia's offense in the future. He is a talented passer with a strong arm and good accuracy. Lagway is also a good athlete and can make plays with his legs.
Georgia fans will be hoping that Lagway can recover from his hamstring injury quickly and be ready to start for the Bulldogs next season.
