WATCH: Raylen Wilson speaks to media after Georgia’s Sugar Bowl loss
Georgia football junior LB Raylen Wilson talked about what the loss means, what the locker room was like and where improvements are needed after Sugar Bowl.
Christen Miller is headed to the NFL.
The Georgia football junior defensive lineman announced his intention to enter the 2026 NFL Draft on Saturday, Jan. 3, two days after the third-ranked Bulldogs were knocked out of the College Football Playoff Sugar Bowl quarterfinal vs. No. 6 seed Ole Miss.
Miller made the announcement on his personal X account (formerly Twitter):
“Lastly, thank you to Dawg Nation for embracing a kid from the east side of Atlanta and exposing me to experiences that helped me grow and transform into who l am today,” Miller wrote in his statement. “Your support has helped prepare me to take this next step and dominate at the next level. With that being said, I’m excited to be declared for the NFL Draft. Blessings.”
The 6-foot-4 defensive lineman appeared in 43 games with the Bulldogs, recording 64 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss and four sacks over four seasons with Georgia.

Pro Football Focus’ Dalton Wasserman has Miller going No. 27 overall to the Los Angeles Rams in his latest mock draft, released on Dec. 29.
Here’s what Wasserman wrote about Miller:
“The Rams could continue to add defensive line depth with Georgia’s Christen Miller. While Poona Ford has been outstanding against the run this season, he is in his early 30s with essentially just one year of guaranteed money remaining on his contract. Miller would be an ideal heir, as he currently ranks third among qualified FBS defensive tackles in PFF run-defense grade (88.3).”
