Malcolm Mitchell recently completed his first healthy spring at Georgia.

If only the fifth-year senior receiver could finally enjoy an injury-free autumn.

“I’ve missed out on some opportunities because of injuries,” Mitchell said, “but this is my chance to make up for all that.”

A pulled hamstring, a sprained ankle, a torn meniscus and a torn anterior cruciate ligament have greatly hindered the former four-star talent out of Valdosta. He never has played a full collegiate season, coming closest in 2012 when an ankle injury kept him out of the opener against Buffalo.

Mitchell had yet to play in a G-Day spring game until last month.
