WATCH: Georgia signee Dominick Blaylock scores two touchdowns to open All-American Bowl
It looks like Georgia is going to be getting a great one in 5-star wide receiver Dominck Blaylock, as he scored the first two touchdowns of the All-American bowl.
Blaylock, who has signed with Georgia and will enroll in the summer, took a short pass from Wisconsin signee Graham Mertz and raced down the sideline to start the day with a 58-yard touchdown.
Blaylock hails from Marietta, GA and played at Walton High School. He is the nation’s No. 6 wide receiver in the country.

With the news of Mecole Hardman and Riley Ridley leaving for the 2019 NFL Draft, Blaylock will likely step into a much bigger role next season. And he showed on Saturday that he is more than capable of making a big-time play in the game.
Past alums to play int he All-American Bowl include Andrew Luck, Odell Beckham, Nick Chubb and Sony Michel.
Another wide receiver from the state of Georgia is set to announce his commitment during the game, as 5-star Jadon Haselwood will announce during the fourth quarter of the game. Georgia target and 4-star DB Tyrique Stevenson will also announce his commitment during the game.
