In the Week 4 win over Kent State, McIntosh left the game in the 4th quarter. Georgia head coach Kirby Smart revealed that McIntosh left the game with a thigh contusion that previously bothered him prior to the game and flared up in the 2nd half.
McIntosh rushed for 44 yards on 9 carries before he left the game with the injury. He also had 6 catches for a total of 35 receiving yards. His performance on Saturday was his best rushing total through 4 games in 2022.
Throughout the season, McIntosh has rushed for a total of 97 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 25 carries. He has been a consistent runner for Georgia’s offense and he will continue to be used. In last season’s 43-6 win over Missouri, McIntosh ran the ball 5 times for a total of 8 rushing yards. If he is healthy for this year’s matchup, he will likely see an increase in yards against the Tigers.
Georgia will be on the road against Missouri on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET.
