Yet another Georgia football player was involved an early-morning incident in an Athens bar.

Senior linebacker Kosta Vavlas was punched in the face early Sunday morning following the Bulldogs win over Vanderbilt at the Silver Dollar Bar.

According to the Athens Banner-Herald, the police report stated that Vavlas was punched in the face by 23-year-old Jeffery Bradford, who was arrested for battery and booked in jail on Sunday morning.

The report also stated that Vavlas was pushed into a crowd of people with Bradford making a comment, then subsequently punching him in the face.

Heisman Trophy candidate and Bulldogs tailback Todd Gurley was falsely accused of punching another UGA student last Sunday morning following the win over Tennessee.
