Georgia star tight end Brock Bowers is expected to be sidelined at least a month after sustaining a high ankle sprain that will require surgery. Georgia announced that Bowers will have surgery on his left ankle after he hobbled off the field in the first half of a victory at Vanderbilt this past weekend.

Bowers would be the third Georgia player to have TightRope surgery this season. Offensive tackle Amarius Mim sustained a high ankle sprain in mid-September and has yet to return. Tight end Lawson Luckie recently rejoined the Bulldogs after being injured in August. In what is sure to be his final college season, Bowers was even being mentioned as a possible Heisman Trophy candidate at a position that rarely draws such attention. The injury surely will scuttle those hopes.
The Bulldogs catch a bit of a break in the schedule, with Bowers being injured heading into an off week.
