Jermaine Burton Transfers from Georgia to Alabama
Former National Champion Returns to Title Game Opponent
Jan 23, 2022 at 7:39 pm ET
Former Georgia wide receiver Jermaine Burton has announced his transfer to the University of Alabama, the team the Bulldogs defeated in the 2021 College Football Playoff National Championship.
Burton was a key contributor to Georgia's championship run, finishing second on the team in receiving yards. However, he decided to enter the transfer portal after the game, reportedly seeking a larger role in an offense.
Alabama has been one of the most dominant programs in college football in recent years, winning six national championships since 2009. Burton will join a loaded offense that already features Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young and star wide receivers Jameson Williams and John Metchie III.
Burton's decision to transfer to Alabama is a major coup for Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban. It also adds another chapter to the rivalry between Georgia and Alabama, two of the top programs in the SEC.
