As the doldrums of the season march on for Florida Football, it's hard to actually know how the depth chart for the Gators is going to shake out once spring practice begins.

And while the bulk of offseason headlines have centered around DJ Lagway, there are three players on the roster on offense who casual fans might not know but could have a big impact by the end of the season.

Treyaun Webb

2024 was supposed to be the breakout season for Webb as the backup to Montrell Johnson. Webb is a hard running and physical running back who had 37 yards off six carries against Texas A&M and 41 yards off eight carries against Mississippi State.

Unfortunately, he wound up with a fractured tibia and missed the rest of the season after the Mississippi State game. Webb's injury paved the way for Jadan Baugh to emerge, as well as Ja'Kobi Jackson, but we would have to imagine Webb is going to get looks early in the season to prove his worth in the running back rotation.

Tank Hawkins

Heading into last year, there was a ton of buzz about Hawkins and his performances in practice. Then the games started and outside of catching a touchdown against Samford and bringing in seven catches for 60 yards against UCF, Hawkins was seldom seen.

With the wide receiver room for Florida being one of the biggest marks heading into 2025, we would have to imagine Hawkins is going to get some early looks, especially if Vernell Brown and Dallas Wilson are still getting up to speed.

Harrison Bailey

Heading into the transfer portal cycle, we actually didn't think backup QB was as pressing of a need, given Florida still had Clay Millen and Tramell Jones to go along with Aidan Warner.

But apparently, Millen has fallen off a cliff compared to what was expected when he transferred in; Jones will be a true freshman, and while it is not Warner's fault, he just isn't a viable option.

If all goes well in 2025, Harrison Bailey will never see the field. But even with all the shenanigans that went on trying to get a backup QB and the odyssey of Deshawn Purdie, Bailey fits the profile of a competent backup in the event that something happens to DJ Lagway this season.
