Georgia Tech quarterback Justin Thomas’ availability for Saturday’s game against Georgia may not be known until the release of the injury report Thursday, and maybe not even then.
At his weekly news conference Monday, coach Paul Johnson said he didn’t know if Thomas would be able to play in the rivalry game, at Bobby Dodd Stadium. Thomas suffered an upper-body injury in the Yellow Jackets’ loss to Miami this past Saturday and did not return.
On the sideline during the game and leaving the locker room afterwards, Thomas moved slowly and seemed to have difficulty turning his neck.
“I’m hopeful that he’s going to play, but I couldn’t sit here right now and tell you that I know he’s going to play for sure or that I know he’s not going to play for sure,” Johnson said. I think we’ll just have to see how the week unfolds.”
