The Eagles selected Georgia CB Kelee Ringo in the third round, bringing the total to five UGA starters picked by Philly over the last two NFL drafts.
PHILADELPHIA — Another day, another Dawg.
The Philadelphia Eagles continue to load up on players from the Georgia Bulldogs‘ dominant defense in the NFL draft. They selected defensive tackle Jalen Carter and edge rusher Nolan Smith in the first round, then traded into the top of the fourth round Saturday to land cornerback Kelee Ringo.
This comes after the Eagles selected a pair of Bulldogs — defensive tackle Jordan Davis and linebacker Nakobe Dean — early in the 2022 draft.
The Eagles on Saturday also acquired running back D’Andre Swift in a trade with the Detroit Lions, sources told ESPN. Swift also played collegiately at Georgia.
It marks the first time in the common draft era that Philadelphia has selected three players from a single school, according to ESPN Stats & Information. With the three selections this year, the Eagles also tied the record for most defensive players drafted from a single school.
