Georgia’s Richt says top receiver A.J. Green and safety Bacarri Rambo to miss Kentucky game

Georgia’s Green, Rambo to miss Kentucky game

ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia will be without Bacarri Rambo and A.J. Green when it plays Kentucky this week.

Coach Mark Richt had encouraging news on Sunday regarding Rambo, the safety who was knocked unconscious on his game-saving hit late in Georgia’s 31-24 win over Auburn on Saturday night. The win made Georgia (6-4) bowl-eligible.

Richt says Rambo “has recovered extremely well” and has no headache or neck pain after suffering a concussion. There were immediate concerns Rambo, who was taken off the field on a cart, suffered other injuries.

Richt says Green, Georgia’s leading receiver, suffered a separation in his left shoulder but should not require surgery. Richt says Green’s status is uncertain after this week.
