Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Jalen Carter has further cemented the legacy of Georgia's incredible defensive unit in 2021.The Philadelphia Eagles recently announced that they would be extending defensive lineman Jalen Carter to a four year, $152 million deal that will make Carter the highest paid defensive lineman in the history of the sport. Carter's signing comes just months after the Eagles also extended former Bulldog Jordan Davis to a three year $78 million deal. Which also made him the highest paid defensive lineman in history at the time. Carter and Davis were both members of the Georgia Bulldogs' 2021 defensive roster, a unit that has become quite legendary for its star-studded cast. During the 2021 season, the Bulldogs held opponents to a staggering 10.2 points per game and held opposing offenses to less than a touchdown on multiple occasions. While the Dawgs' output was fantastic, it was the team's victory in the national championship game that ultimately solidified the unit as one of the greatest all-time. The Bulldogs held the Alabama Crimson Tide to just 18 points en route to their first national championship victory in 41 years.The legendary status of Georgia's unit was further cemented during the 2022 NFL Draft, when the Dawgs boasted a historic five first round draft picks on the defensive side of the football alone. Those numbers also do not include players who were taken in later drafts, such as Jalen Carter himself.
