Gators could get Eugene Wilson back
10/04/2024
It feels like it’s been a while since Florida got some good news, but they may have some coming soon in regard to their leading receiver Eugene Wilson.
The sophomore wideout was back at practice this week leading up to Saturday’s game against Central Florida, according to Gators head coach Billy Napier.
Wilson injured his knee against Samford, and he missed both games against Mississippi State and Texas A&M. Napier did not speculate whether or not he would play this weekend against UCF, but even the limited reps feel like a positive sign.
Wilson has 13 catches for 191 yards in just two games for the Gators this year, but he becomes the second starting wide receiver to miss significant action so far along with Kahleil Jackson. Wilson, a Tampa native, was second on the team a year ago in receptions and yards and led Florida in receiving touchdowns with six.
