Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs have dealt with off-the-field issues the past few seasons and had another incident over the weekend as offensive lineman Nyier Daniels was arrested on Sunday morning.
Daniels, a former 4-star recruit from Newark, N.J., was booked at the Jackson County Jail. He is facing charges that include fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer, along with two second-degree child cruelty charges. Daniels is also facing other driving-related charges.
On Monday, while talking to reporters, Smart announced that Daniels was no longer on the team.
“I know you guys want to ask about Nyier. I have not had a chance to talk with him or his family,” Smart told reporters. “Obviously, he will no longer be with us.”
