Florida defensive lineman Gervon Dexter declares for 2023 NFL Draft
Florida defensive lineman Gervon Dexter has declared for the NFL Draft, according to Zach Goodall. Dexter also announced his decision on Twitter.
Gervon Dexter has been a key piece of the Gators’ defense for three seasons, plugging up the interior of Florida’s defensive line.
Gervon Dexter played high school football at Lake Wales (FL), where he was a five-star prospect. He was the No. 7 overall recruit in the 2020 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
Where Gervon Dexter goes in the NFL Draft remains to be seen. However, he has a lot of talent and could potentially be a high NFL Draft pick with a good pre-draft process.
