Branson Robinson has missed the last four games plus a bye week since his MCL injury against Mississippi State. In six games this season, Robinson has just 73 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 25 carries.
Branson Robinson, the former four-star product and No. 2-ranked running back nationally and 73rd-ranked overall player in the 2022 class according to On3’s Industry Rankings, also missed all of the 2023 season with a ruptured patellar tendon suffered in Fall Camp prior to that season.
Prior to the Tennessee game, Smart was hesitant to put a definitive timetable on Robinson’s return.
“Branson is back out with us,” Smart said Nov. 12. “Moving around, running on the bike in pads. I don’t want to say he’s a week away, I honestly don’t know. But he’s getting closer.”
Branson has an MCL. I don’t know how many weeks it will be. He will not be available this week,” Smart said. “The MCL is one of those that he has to heal himself. It was not the same leg injury that he previously had.”
Behind Robinson, Georgia was also without running back Chauncey Bowens. The freshman running back was not dressed out for Saturday’s game.
Trevor Etienne ran for 35 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries, while Nate Frazier had 43 yards rushing on 10 carries. Anthony Evans added a 52-yard run as well.
