Robert Clayton Webb is an American football offensive guard who plays for the Jacksonville State Gamecocks. Webb previously played for the Georgia Bulldogs.

Early years

Webb attended Oxford High School in Oxford, Alabama, where he played football and wrestling.[1] In his sophomore, junior, and senior years Webb was named an ASWA first-team all-state offensive player for class 6A.[2][3][4] As a senior, Webb was named the best offensive guard in the state of Alabama and was a finalist for the AHSAA player of the year.[5][6] Additionally, Webb was selected to play in the 2019 Under Armour All-America Game and was rated as the 18th best player in the USA Today Sports' Chosen 25.[7] Webb was also rated as a consensus five-star recruit[8] and was rated by ESPN as the number one center in the class of 2019.[9][10] Webb committed to play college football for the University of Georgia over Alabama, Clemson, and Auburn.[11]

College career

Georgia

Coming into Georgia, Webb was regarded as an immediate contender for a starting position on the offensive line.[12] Webb enrolled early at Georgia in January 2019 and participated in late-season practices before appearing in four games in the 2019 season. In 2020, Webb played in only three games and did not play in any games during the 2021 season. Nevertheless, Webb was a part of the Georgia team that won the national championship in 2021.[13]

Jacksonville State

After the 2021 season, Webb transferred to Jacksonville State University, where he would continue playing football.[14] In his first season at Jacksonville State, Webb played in ten games and started seven of them, helping Jacksonville State lead the ASUN in rushing yards. Webb started twelve games the following year, helping the Gamecocks have the fifth-best rushing offense in the FBS.[15] Following the 2023 season, Webb was named a first-team All-American and the best offensive guard in the country by College Football Network[16] and a second-team All-American by the Associated Press.[17][18] Additionally, Webb was named a second-team All-CUSA player.[19] Entering the 2024 season, Webb was touted as a highly prospective offensive lineman[20][21] and one of the best-returning linemen in college football.[22][23] Webb was also named to the preseason watchlist for the Lombardi Award,[24] the Outland Trophy,[25] the USA Today second-team All-American team,[26] and the Walter Camp first-team All-American team.[27] Following the regular season, Webb was named a member of the first-team All-CUSA team.[28]
