The Georgia Bulldogs could be getting yet another elite recruit. On3 has predicted five-star tight end recruit Kaiden Prothro to commit to the Bulldogs. He will choose to play college football among Georgia, Florida and Texas on July 12, but On3 believes he will choose Georgia.

Prothro is a five-star tight end from the class of 2026. The 6-foot-5, 216-pound tight end plays football at Bowdon High School. He is ranked as the No. 2 tight end and No. 29 prospect in the nation, according to On3. He is also the No. 4 prospect from Georgia.

Prothro earned a roster spot in the Under-Armour All-American game. The rosters included former five-star freshmen Elijah Griffin and Juan Gaston and four-star commit Zech Fort.

Georgia has been on seven visits with Prothro, which ties with Auburn for the most of any school in the nation, according to On3. That includes an official visit with Prothro, which occurred on May 30. Prothro has visited Florida four times, including an official visit on June 13. However, Texas received an official visit from Prothro on June 20.

Recruiting Prothro is essential for Georgia. The Bulldogs just saw four-star wide Vance Spafford flip to Miami, leaving Georgia with just four-star wide receivers Ryan Mosley, Craig Dandridge and Brady Marchese, along with four-star tight end Lincoln Keyes. Georgia pushed hard for the recruitment of five-star Mark Bowman, with On3 predicting that Bowman would land with Georgia, but Bowman eventually committed to the USC Trojans.

However, Georgia’s on a recruiting hot streak recently, earning commitments from 12 recruits since the start of June. As a result, the Bulldogs are the No. 4 recruiting class in the nation, according to 247Sports.
