Watch: Georgia's Jalen Carter shows off incredible strength, sends message to NFL scouts

By Adam Gretz | Last updated 12/3/22

Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter is a mountain of a man and also one of the top prospects for the 2023 NFL draft.

He might have been sending a message to NFL scouts during the SEC Championship game on Saturday against LSU.

During the second quarter of Saturday's game, Carter wrapped up LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels — a 6-foot-3, 300-pound human being in full football equipment — and lifted him up off the ground with one arm, while also holding up a No. 1 sign with his other hand for everybody to see.

Is that his way of telling everybody he should be the No. 1 pick in the draft?

Just his way of saying Georgia is the top team in the land and set to be the No. 1 team in the playoff?

Or perhaps just his way of asserting his dominance over the game?

Who is to say, really. But no matter what message he was trying to send, that was downright comical. Also intimidating if you are still somebody that has to line up across from him this season.
