Elite WR recruit projected to commit to Georgia football
Talented class of 2027 wide receiver recruit Gavin Honore is one of the top playmakers in his recruiting cycle. Honore plays high school football for Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California. Mater Dei is a national powerhouse and is where Georgia Bulldogs running back Nate Frazier played his high school football.
Honore is ranked as a three-star recruit. The rising junior is the No. 421 recruit in the nation and the No. 52 prospect in California, per 247Sports. Honore is the No. 54 wide receiver in the nation. The 5-foot-10, 170-pound receiver also runs track and has excellent speed.
The Mater Dei star is projected to commit to Georgia. Coach Kirby Smart and Georgia don't have a commitment in the class of 2027 yet, so it would be nice for the Bulldogs to land a foundational piece in the 2027 cycle.
The elite receiver was recently named as the MVP of a National Preps Showcase. Georgia offered Honore on April 1. Honore's recruitment has picked up recently and he's received recent scholarship offers from Texas, Texas Tech and Louisville.
Honore is a slot receiver with excellent quickness. He's a well-refined route runner and made a lot of his sophomore production running deeper routes.

AFC South team expected to sign RB Nick Chubb
Former Georgia Bulldogs running back Nick Chubb is close to finding a new home. He is expected to sign with the Houston Texans on a one-year deal, according to Ian Rapoport. His physical is still pending. Chubb was a five-star running back when he was recruited by the Georgia Bulldogs in 2014. He would go on to have one of the most legendary careers by a Georgia running back ever. Through four seasons, he ranked second among all running backs in yards (4,769) and touchdowns (44) in school history. Chubb's injury concerns popped up in 2015, when he tore his PCL, MCL, and LCL against Tennessee. Despite the injury, the Cleveland Browns selected him 37th overall in the 2018 draft. Early on, Chubb looked like he could be one of the greatest running backs of all time. In his first five seasons, he totaled 6,341 yards and 48 touchdowns on just 1,210 attempts. He had more yards than Pro Football Hall of Famers Tony Dorsett, Edgerrin James, Jerome Bettis, and Thurman Thomas did through their first five seasons. Unfortunately, injuries caught up with him again. He suffered a torn MCL in 2023 vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football. That took him out for the rest of the 2023 season and six games of the 2024 season. Need a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle When he came back, he wasn't the quite same running back, but he still showed flashes of his immense talent in a two-touchdown game against the Steelers on Thursday Night Football in Week 12. Unfortunately, against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 14, he suffered a broken foot. With his contract expiring in 2024, Cleveland did not re-sign him. Chubb now is expected to join a crowded backfield with solid veteran Joe Mixon, youngster Dameon Pierce, and fourth-round pick Woody Marks.
