“Two bits, four bits, six bits, a dollar. All for the Gators, stand up and holler.”
A former member of the Florida football team, Super Bowl LII champion, and passer in the legendary “Philly Special” will be the honorary Mr. Two Bits in this week’s contest between the Gators and No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers.
Retired NFL veteran [autotag]Trey Burton[/autotag] will don the yellow button-up and striped tie to lead the “Two Bits” chant. Burton returns to a football field after retiring in 2020, playing tight end for the Philadelphia Eagles and Chicago Bears.
Burton has been away from the beautiful game to be a part of his family but he’s excited to return to The Swamp.
“I haven’t been back for a game in a while,” Burton said. “I’m going to be so dialed in for this.”

Burton plans to bring his wife, Yesenia, and three kids, Ariella, Jaxon, and Kaia, to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium so they can also enjoy the atmosphere.
“I’ve been hyping them all week, and they can’t wait,” Burton said. “They were born to go to a game.”
The Florida Gators start their conference slate on Saturday with the No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers coming to town. The rivalry game will be broadcast on ESPN at 7 p.m. EDT.
