The Florida Gators issued their initial availability report Wednesday night along with Georgia. It’s the first of four injury reports that will be released before the Gators (4-3, 2-2 SEC) face the No. 2 Bulldogs (6-1, 4-1 SEC) in Jacksonville Saturday at 3:30 p.m. on ABC.

UF has nine players out including starting receiver Eugene Wilson III and cornerback Jason Marshall Jr., who’s out for the season. Both injury updates on Wilson and Marshall were first reported by Gators Online. The other seven players out are not new injuries.

Three Gators are listed as questionable on Wednesday’s report, most notably starting running back Montrell Johnson Jr. He missed the Kentucky game with a knee injury but has practiced this week, Gators Online has learned.

Offensive lineman Damieon George and linebacker RJ Moten are also questionable. George has started all seven games this season at right guard, while Moten missed the Kentucky game with an injury he suffered at Tennessee.

Coming off the open date, Florida has seven players no longer listed on the injury report after missing recent games: receivers TJ Abrams and Marcus Burke, running backs KD Daniels and Treyaun Webb, tight end Tony Livingston, safety Bryce Thornton and long snapper Rocco Underwood.

The Bulldogs have two players listed as probable — offensive lineman Tate Rutledge and defensive lineman Jordan Hall — and six players out for Saturday, although defensive backs Joenel Aguero and Dan Jackson will only miss the first half following their targeting penalties in the second half at Texas.
