DJ Lagway is one of six Florida starters questionable against Texas
The Florida Gators issued their initial availability report Wednesday night along with Texas. It’s the first of four injury reports that will be released before the Gators (4-4, 2-3 SEC) face the No. 5 Longhorns (7-1, 5-1 SEC) on Saturday at 12 p.m. on ABC.
UF starting cornerback Devin Moore has been ruled out and six starters are listed as questionable against Texas, including quarterback DJ Lagway. He returned to the practice field on Wednesday after being out two days with a hamstring injury. His progress the rest of the week will determine his status Saturday.
In addition to Lagway, running back Montrell Johnson Jr., receiver Elijhah Badger, right guard Damieon George Jr., nose tackle Cam Jackson and cornerback Dijon Johnson are all listed as questionable.
Johnson and George were both questionable last week and game-time decisions, with George getting the green light and Johnson missing his second straight game. Johnson made his first career start against Georgia but left the game with an injury. Badger and Jackson are both new to the injury report.
Moore, who was also hurt versus UGA, is one of 10 players out for UF, inclduing seven starters. Backup center Roderick Kearney is not included on the injury report after missing the last two games.
