Ladd McConkey’s GF Syndey turns into hype-woman for former Georgia WR ahead of NFL combine - “Good luck to MY guy"
Former Georgia WR Ladd McConkey has packed his bags for Indianapolis to showcase his skills at the NFL combine. One of the sought-after WRs in college football right now, McConkey will be on the radar of several teams in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Amidst all this, McConkey GF - Sydney Horne has backed the Georgia WR, hyping him up before the combine. She shared a picture of McConkey on her IG story and captioned it,
"Good luck to MY guy ❤️🤞🏾"
This is not the first time McConkey has found support in his girlfriend Sydney Horne. When the CFB season ended in January 2024, Sydney backed the 22-year-old for NFL success. Commenting on McConkey's farewell IG post for the Bulldogs, she had said:
"One hell of a ride. So proud of you. Go do big things babe"
While not necessarily a top-tier WR1 due to average speed and explosiveness, McConkey's agility and knack for exploiting defensive weaknesses make him a perfect fit as a WR2 or WR3.
