Georgia will be without wide receiver George Pickens for Saturday’s game against Florida, according to a person familiar with the situation. The sophomore has an upper-body injury.

It will be the second straight game that Pickens will be unavailable. He also missed last Saturday’s 14-3 victory over Kentucky.

Pickens, a preseason All-SEC wideout, has 13 receptions for 140 yards and two touchdowns this season.
