Florida football is wrapping up its fall practice schedule ahead of the start of classes on Wednesday, Aug. 23. Billy Napier and Co. conducted its second and final scrimmage of the preseason on Aug. 18, and since has been tying up the loose ends before school starts.
The Gators saw plenty of fresh faces this summer on the practice fields, including former Wisconsin Badgers transfer quarterback Graham Mertz, who earned the starting nod after Napier withheld his decision until after the scrimmage. There have also been some injuries that have altered the roster heading into the 2023 campaign, but for the most part, the team has worked hard at getting lean and mean for the grueling gridiron schedule ahead.
Below is a look at highlights from Florida’s workouts on both Aug. 9 and Aug. 17 at the Gary Condron Family Indoor Practice Center and Sanders Practice Fields, respectively, courtesy of the Gainesville Sun’s Alan Youngblood.
