A spokesman for Georgia said that Dent had outpatient surgery at St. Mary's this morning for a left first toe injury suffered in an off-field accident last week. Dent's recovery time is expected to be four to six weeks.
Sophomore Mike Gilliard is listed as Dent’s backup in the pre-season depth chart released by Georgia, but it is unclear if he would move to the starting spot or if another linebacker would move there.
