Georgia's QB left against Texas due to injury

(This story has been updated with new information)

No. 5 Georgia football trailed at halftime in Saturday’s SEC championship game against No. 2 Texas.

But the Bulldogs’ bigger concern is quarterback Carson Beck.

The Georgia quarterback was injured in the final seconds of the first half when he was hit by Longhorns defensive edge Trey Moore. He was on the sidelines at the start of the second half but will not be able to return to the game due to a hand injury, according to ESPN’s Holly Rowe.

Before halftime, Georgia coach Kirby Smart told Rowe that he hurt his hand when Moore punched out the ball. Smart continued by saying Georgia will look to Beck at halftime.

“He should be fine. I don’t know it. We’ve got to take a look at him,” Smart told Rowe before halftime.

Beck struggled with the Texas offense in the first half, completing 7 of 13 passes for 56 yards in the first 30 minutes. The Bulldogs have been chasing their SEC championship title since 2022.
