ATHENS, Ga. — Another Georgia football player was arrested for speeding and reckless driving on Thursday night.

The Athens Clarke County Police Department said Daniel Harris was driving along the Georgia 10 outer loop at College Station when he was pulled over.

Driving in a Jeep Grand Cherokee, Harris reached speeds over 100 miles per hour, according to police.

Harris was charged with the following:

  • Reckless driving
  • Use of safety belts
  • Operation of unregistered vehicle without current license plate/revalidation decal
  • No proof of insurance
  • Affixing materials that reduce the visibility of windows/windshield

Harris, a sophomore defensive back is the latest UGA football player to be arrested.
