The 6-6, 300-pound Norton had appeared in all 13 of Georgia’s games this season as a backup defensive lineman and special teams performer.
He recorded 3 tackles during his junior season.
Norton was a highly touted recruit for the Bulldogs out of Christian Brothers High School in Memphis.
He was rated by the 247Sports composite as a 4-star prospect and one of the top 200 players in the 2019 class.
In addition to Georgia, Norton also held offers from Tennessee, Alabama, LSU, and Ohio State, among several others.
