DJ Lagway injury update: Billy Napier reveals Florida QB’s status vs. LSU
On Thursday, Florida head coach Billy Napier confirmed quarterback DJ Lagway will return for the Gators on Saturday against No. 16 LSU, per Kevin Brockway. Lagway didn’t play in Florida’s 49-17 loss to Texas last week.
Lagway was unavailable due to a hamstring injury that he suffered in the Gators’ loss to Georgia in Week 10. Before leaving the game, Lagway completed 2-of-his-6 pass attempts for 47 yards and a touchdown. He also recorded 18 rushing yards on four carries.
Backup QB Aidan Warner played in Lagway’s place on Saturday. In the loss to the Longhorns, Warner completed 12-of-his-25 pass attempts for 132 yards and threw two interceptions while failing to find a touchdown.
Lagway has been Florida’s starting quarterback since Graham Mertz sustained a season-ending injury against Tennessee on Oct. 12. In Week 8, Lagway led the Gators to an emphatic 48-20 triumph over Kentucky.
This story will be updated.
