As early as now, several NFL teams are already salivating at the idea of drafting Kelee Ringo in the 2023 NFL Draft. Yup, he’s that good. But for now, the cornerback still has his final year of collegiate football ahead of him before the big leagues snatch him up.
It’s not hard to see why Kelee Ringo looks like a bonafide NFL star in the making. The 20-year-old Fan Arch athlete was a five-star recruit and the no.1 cornerback in the class of 2020 out of high school. The University of Georgia had to fend off other powerhouse programs just to secure his commitment.
But Kelee Ringo’s debut was delayed after suffering a torn labrum in his shoulder, which sidelined him for the entirety of his freshman season in 2020. A year later, he showed us all why he was worth the wait.
Georgia’s defense was well known for its front seven. But make no mistake about it — Kelee Ringo is at the center of it all.
Kelee Ringo started in 12 of his 15 games in 2021, registering 34 tackles, finishing second on the team with eight pass breakups, and making two interceptions. He was a major problem for opposing teams, allowing just 24 catches on 59 targets for a 40.7 completion percentage, along with a passer rating of 63.2 when targeted.
Kelee Ringo’s prowess was evident in Georgia’s CFP Championship Game vs. Alabama, where he tallied six tackles and that game-sealing 79-yard interception return for a TD. Amazing!
