Georgia outside linebacker Azeez Ojulari will be entering the 2021 NFL Draft, he announced Saturday.

Ojulari's decision comes on the heels of a three-sack performance in Friday's Peach Bowl victory over Cincinnati. He also chipped in with two forced fumbles and played a huge role in Georgia's comeback.

The redshirt sophomore has picked up first-round buzz recently, with PFF projecting Ojulari to go 14th overall in its latest mock draft.

Ojulari will forgo multiple years of eligibility but will be aiming to capitalize on an impressive 2020 season. He put up his best numbers to date this year, recording 9.5 sacks and 12.5 tackles for a loss.
