Georgia football coach Kirby Smart said Monday that reserve offensive lineman Nyier Daniels is off the team following his arrest Sunday in which he led Commerce police on a chase after they saw him driving more than 100 miles per hour.

“Have not had a chance to talk to him or his family, but obviously he will no longer be with us," Smart said.

He was charged with three felonies ― fleeing from a police officer and two counts of cruelty to a child in the second degree — and 10 misdemeanors including reckless driving, speeding, failure to maintain lane, driving on the wrong side of road and passing in a no passing zone.

His mother was also arrested and faces multiple charges including felony fleeing from an officer.

They remained in the Jackson County Jail on Monday morning Nov. 24.
