Athens, Ga. — Georgia receiver Tony Wilson had surgery on Monday after suffering a fracture to his left ankle in Saturday's scrimmage.
Wilson will have a second surgery in about eight weeks to remove screws placed to stabilize the ankle. He is expected to recover in time to play in the 2008 season.
Wilson played in 11 games with two starts in 2007, when he was a redshirt freshman. He caught 14 passes for 124 yards and led the team with four catches against Vanderbilt.
Georgia opened its third week of spring drills Monday. "For a Monday after a scrimmage and a holiday it was a pretty good practice," said coach Mark Richt. "I thought the effort was good. It was pretty evenly matched today."
The spring G-Day game is scheduled for April 5.
