A Georgia football wide receiver was detained early Saturday on two driving-related counts.

Sacovie White, a freshman, was charged with reckless driving and “one way roadway” after being stopped by Athens-Clarke County police.

He was booked into the Clarke County Jail at 3:04 a.m. Saturday and released an hour later on $26 bail, according to the jail’s online booking log.

White is the second Georgia football player arrested in Athens in the previous two months for reckless driving.

Running back Trevor Etienne was also charged with DUI/alcohol and failing to maintain lane on March 24. He could be sidelined for the season opener against Clemson due to the DUI.
