Georgia had one other minor injury situation come out of the Florida game, but defensive end Sterling Bailey says now he’s just fine.

The 6-foot-3, 280-pound defensive end from Gainesville suffered what he described as a “stinger,” a type of neck injury, in the fourth quarter against the Gators and was unable to finish the game.

“I’m doing perfectly fine now,” Bailey said. “Just got a little banged up, that’s all. It was just a stinger, nothing too serious.”

Bailey has played in all nine games for the Bulldogs with two starts this season. He has 16 tackles, three quarterback hurries and two pass deflections.
