Eagles draft another Georgia defensive player: CB Kelee Ringo

Eagles fans react to team selecting Jalen Carter in 2023 NFL Draft

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Eagles continued their pattern of drafting Georgia Bulldogs Saturday when they selected cornerback Kelee Ringo in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Ringo, a native of Tacoma. Wash., was selected early in the draft's fourth round, 105th overall. The Eagles traded up to get that pick, shipping a 2024 3rd-round pick to Houston.

Ringo was selected for the 2022 All-SEC second team. In the 2022 season, he had 42 total tackles and snagged two interceptions.

CBS Sports says Ringo's game is a lot like Trevon Diggs of the Dallas Cowboys.

This Georgia Bulldog will have plenty of company on the Eagles' defense.
