NASHVILLE - Isaiah McKenzie returns 77 yards for a touchdown during No. 10 Georgia's 31-14 win over Vanderbilt at Vanderbilt Stadium on September 12, 2015.
Athens-Clarke County police Tuesday said they were investigating a woman’s complaint that University of Georgia wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie directed a death threat at her.
The woman, identified in a police report as a UGA student, told police McKenzie told her he was “going to call some friends and they were going to come out and he was going to kill her.”
McKenzie starts as a wide receiver for the Bulldogs, but also is making his mark on special teams. Considered by some to be among the top punt returners in the country, he returned a punt in the Vanderbilt game this month 77 yards for a touchdown. That left him one punt return touchdown away from Georgia’s career record of four held by Buzy Rosenberg (1970-72).
