Florida Gators football have the potential to land a cornerback from the transfer portal.
Tulane Green Wave redshirt senior [autotag]DJ Douglas[/autotag] entered the portal back in December and is wasting no time setting up visits to school campuses across the nation.
Douglas announced to Gators Online that he’ll be paying a visit to the University of Florida on Jan. 3.
This will be the second time Douglas utilizes the transfer portal in his collegiate career, transferring from the Alabama Crimson Tide to get more playing time with the Green Wave. He originally joined the Crimson Tide as a walk-on freshman.
The plan came to fruition, and Douglas suited up for three seasons with Tulane, collecting 39 tackles, four interceptions and deflecting seven passes. Three of those pickoffs occurred in the 2023 season.
Landing Douglas will be substantial as the Florida Gators try to rebuild its football program, who has been falling apart since the conclusion of the 2023 campaign.
According to On3, Douglas is predicted to make the move to either West Virginia or Texas A&M.
