Georgia linebacker Jamon Dumas-Johnson insisted Thursday there is no speeding culture in Athens.

Dumas-Johnson was charged with drag racing and reckless driving from an incident dating to the night of Georgia’s national title. It was one of several speeding issues the football program has endured this offseason.

“(There’s) no culture about speeding. Mine was before everything hit the Internet and stuff like that,” he said.

“I definitely don’t think it’s a culture that we’ve created. Just some bad choices that we’re making right now and hopefully the team will get it together.”

Former Bulldogs star Jalen Carter was charged in March with street racing and reckless driving for his actions in the early hours of Jan. 15, when Georgia staffer Chandler LeCroy crashed while racing with Carter. LeCroy and Bulldogs offensive lineman Devin Willock were killed in the wreck, which also injured two others and resulted in a lawsuit brought forth by Willock’s family. Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint was arrested in May on charges of reckless driving and speeding-maximum limits.

On Thursday, Dumas-Johnson, the team’s second leading tackler in 2022, took accountability for his actions.

“I’m definitely disappointed in myself and the decisions I made,” he said. “I’ve been disciplined for that, just really looking forward to moving on from that. I made a bad decision, but I take full responsibility for what I did.”
