Georgia has had at least 30 arrests or citations for speeding, reckless driving or racing since the crash that killed offensive lineman Devin Willock and recruiting staffer Chandler LeCroy on Jan. 15, 2023. Police said LeCroy and defensive tackle Jalen Carter were racing at about 104 miles per hour. Carter plead no contest to racing and reckless driving.
Harris has four tackles in the first two games of this season as a top backup at cornerback. Georgia also has five-star freshman Ellis Robinson that could see more snaps behind starters Daylen Everette and Julian Humphrey if Harris doesn't play.
When police stopped Harris, the vehicle had a temporary tag that expired on Aug. 4., 2024. Harris was placed in custody after exiting the vehicle. The vehicle registration expired on March 8, 2024, according to a check by police and also showed it had no insurance coverage, the incident report said.
The driver's seatbelt was buckled without anyone in the seat, police, said, "indicating it was behind his seat while he was driving and not being worn across the chest and lap," the report said.
The driver's side window tint was also noticed to be dark. It showed "04 percent light transmission."
