Projected rookie contract details for Gators players selected in 2025 NFL Draft
Seven Florida Gators were selected in this year’s NFL Draft, starting with receiver Chimere Dike in the fourth round and ending with defensive back Trikweze Bridges in the seventh. While that is well short of the school record (10), it still was a nice haul. Nothing will come easy at the next level but these former Florida players will have a chance to make a good chunk of change in the coming years. Gators Online is providing a rundown of what each of those Florida Gators players can expect to make on their rookie deals per spotrac.com. These would be four-year contracts.
