As the Florida Gators get ready to take on the Kentucky Wildcats at 7:30 in Lexington, the biggest concern among Gator fans is the continuing conga line of Gators who keep winding up hurt. Florida has seemingly had someone important get hurt every week, and the fallout from Georgia is no different.
But the good news for Florida is that it is getting back two key playmakers who missed against Georgia, and the Gators will need both of them to make the offense hum against Kentucky.
Are Vernell Brown III and Aidan Mizell playing?
Yes, at least in theory. Both wide receivers missed the game against Georgia and were listed as questionable on the Wednesday injury report.
But on the Thursday report, both were taken off the report, indicating that both should be able to suit up and go.
Their returns are important because...
Are Dallas Wilson and Eugene Wilson III playing?
In case you missed it, neither Wilson wide receiver is playing on Saturday. Dallas Wilson hurt his foot against Georgia and wound up in a walking boot. It was later announced he has a broken right foot and his season is done.
Eugene Wilson III was the more surprising one to show up as "out" this week. This was a blow considering he just came off a nine catch, 121-yard performance against Kentucky.
Any other new names to show up?
Grayson Howard hasn't actually played a defensive snap since the Miami game, but he popped up and was listed as out. Likewise, Taylor Spierto, Ty Jackson, and Michael Caraway Jr. are also listed as out.
Who are the rest of the Gators who are hurt?
The Gators are slated to get RB Duke Clark back, but beyond that, there aren't any new names returning from the injury list.
Caleb Banks, Ja’Kobi Jackson, Treyaun Webb, LJ McCray, and Dijon Johnson are all listed as out against Kentucky.
