Former Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch was arrested by Athens-Clarke County police on Sunday morning on misdemeanor charges of obstructing public sidewalks/streets and obstruction of a law enforcement officer.
According to arrest logs, Branch was booked shortly after 1 a.m. local time Sunday morning. He was released on bonds totaling $39 hours later.
A full police report of the incident had not yet been released at the time of publication.
The standout receiver was back in Athens this weekend for the Bulldogs’ spring game. He is hoping to hear his name called early in the 2026 NFL Draft, which begins next Thursday.
Branch led the Bulldogs with 81 receptions for 811 yards and 6 touchdowns last season. It was his first and only season with the program after spending 2 years with USC prior.
In Mel Kiper Jr.’s latest mock draft for ESPN, Branch was projected to be taken by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 53rd overall pick in the second round. Most projections list Branch as a Day 2 selection.
Georgia declined to comment on the incident when reached by DawgNation. It’s unclear if or how the incident will impact his draft stock so close to the start of the event.
