Ledbetter was suspended “for at least two games” in July following an arrest for DUI.
The current sophomore was rated the No. 5 strong-side defensive end of the 2015 recruiting class by 247Sports Composite. As a freshman, Ledbetter played in seven games and recorded four tackles. He will likely compete with freshman David Marshall for playing time.
In six games without Ledbetter, UGA has gone 4-2. The Bulldogs take on Vanderbilt this Saturday at noon on the SEC Network.
