Published:
Georgia offensive lineman Mirko Jurkovic has been medically disqualified, which will end his football career according to Dawgs247. Jurkovic was a late addition to the Bulldogs’ 2015 signing class and originally signed with Ohio State, but he missed his entire freshman season due to a right knee injury that occurred in his first preseason camp.
The report also said that Jurkovic experienced a similar injury to his left knee this spring, which is what forced the end of his football career prior to playing in a single game for Georgia.
Exiting high school, Jurkovic was a three-star prospect according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.
He won’t lose his Georgia scholarship, and he won’t count against UGA’s scholarship limit of 85 players.
