Florida Caps Portal Window With 20+ Additions, Near-30 Exits in Sumrall’s First Offseason
The roster reset reflects a push for experience and toughness during the Jan. 2–16 transfer period.
Overview
- Florida has signed or secured commitments from more than 20 transfers while close to 30 scholarship players and walk-ons departed from the 2025 roster.
- The staff is still hosting unsigned portal entrants and can add transfers through Feb. 5, though coaches say the roster is close to complete.
- Key additions include WR Eric Singleton, QB Aaron Philo, S Cam Dooley, RB Evan Pryor, and OL Emeka Ugorji to address skill, secondary, and line needs.
- Notable departures feature QB DJ Lagway (expected to sign with Baylor), WR Eugene Wilson III (LSU), DT Michai Boireau and DB Sharif Denson (Ole Miss), and S Jordan Castell (Kentucky).
- Philo will compete with Tramell Jones Jr. at quarterback as Jon Sumrall and general manager Dave Caldwell steer a rebuild from last season’s 4-8 finish.
