Napier Says DJ Lagway Is ‘On Schedule,’ QB Decision Still Pending

Analysts are raising concerns about his week-to-week availability.

Overview

  • Lagway returned to 11-on-11 work Monday and has been active all week, with Billy Napier calling his recent practices his best yet.
  • On3’s Keith Niebuhr reported the quarterback is making a “ton of progress,” and a team source told GatorsOnline his arm is close to full strength.
  • Florida has not named a starter, with Napier describing the competition as unresolved heading into game week.
  • Louisville transfer Harrison Bailey and redshirt sophomore Aidan Warner continue to take meaningful reps, with Warner drawing praise for an Aug. 16 scrimmage.
  • Lagway missed early portions of camp and both scrimmages after a July calf strain and a spring limited by shoulder and lower-body issues, and Florida opens Aug. 30 against Long Island at The Swamp.
