Five incredible DJ Lagway passes in his Florida Football debut season

Coming into the 2024 season, we didn't actually expect DJ Lagway to play that large of a role with Florida Football. The hype behind the freshman was massive, but more times than not we don't get to see many true freshman QBs take meaningful snaps around the country.

But a combination of a QB rotation along with injuries to Graham Mertz saw Lagway on the field a ton in 2024.

The following were five of his best throws of the 2024 campaign.

Flick of the wrist to Mizell against Samford

There were already a couple of throws that Lagway made it this game to announce that he was something special, even if it was against Samford. But the touchdown throw he made to Aidan Mizell was the type of throw that gets one to pop no matter the opponent.

Lagway was forced to dance around in the pocket, step up, and with the flick of a wrist hit a 41 yard dot to Mizell for the touchdown.

Lagway ties it up in Knoxville

After Mertz went down in the game, it was up to Lagway to lead Florida from behind in one of the hardest places to play in America.

No problem, as he found a streaking Chimere Dike on the money to silence the Tennessee faithful and send the game into overtime.

Lagway shows off against Kentucky

One of the fears against Kentucky is that their base defense eats up Billy Napier's base offense of dink and dunk. The solution to that is to go long and attack Kentucky's secondary.

Once he got into rhythm, Lagway kept launching it downfield and the Wildcats had no solutions for the freshman.

Lagway puts Georgia on notice

Probably the biggest what if of the 2024 season is what if Lagway doesn't get hurt against Georgia?

His strike to Mizell in the second quarter put the Gators ahead before the turf of Jacksonville had to rear its ugly head.

FSU doesn't like flag planting

During the four-game winning streak, there were other more meaningful throws that Lagway made against LSU and Ole Miss, but one of the reasons the ceiling is sky high is because of throws like this against FSU.
