Kirby Smart’s ex-player shines! The Jacksonville Jaguars have just locked up cornerback Tyson Campbell, a former star under Georgia Bulldogs’ head coach Kirby Smart, with a lucrative 4-year, $76.5 million extension. This hefty deal, with $53.4 million guaranteed, highlights Smart’s prowess in talent development.
Looks like it is just another feather in Smart’s cap now. On July 23rd, UGA Sports recruiting analyst Trent Smallwood posted on X that, “Just another recruiting tool to go in Kirby Smart’s pocket. Former #UGA DB Tyson Campbell getting paid.” Interestingly, Campbell’s contract makes him the highest-paid NFL cornerback without a Pro Bowl selection to his name.
