Florida football enters the start of the 2026 season fairly healthy as the Gators are set to kickoff against Florida Atlantic at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Sept. 5.
Earlier in the week, Florida football coach Jon Sumrall told reporters that tight end Evan Chieca was dealing with lower body and is questionable, while freshman defensive tackle Kendall Guervil was back practicing after dealing with a knee injury.
The only known player out for the year is running back Kelvin Jimenez.
During pregame warmups against FAU, freshman wide receiver Davian Groce was not dressed out. His injury is unknown as he was wearing street clothes.
Defensive lineman Stive-Bently Keumajou-Youndui was not dressed out with a sleeve on his leg, while offensive lineman Eager Boyer, a Penn State transfer, was also not dressed out.

The Florida Gators made finalizations to their roster for the upcoming season ahead of Wednesday's fall camp, adding seven players since the end of spring camp in April.
The Gators brought in five freshmen who can help on both sides of the ball: wide receiver Mason Jordan, defensive linemen Stive-Bentley Keumajou-Yondui and Jayden Gross, safety Eric Parks Jr. and long snapper Lincoln Anderson. The program also brought in two transfers, who are both fairly unconventional: tight end Jaylen Jordon and cornerback Javier Jones, who round out the summer acquisitions for Florida.
The Coral Gables, Florida, product was a surprise addition to the 2026 roster. The defensive tackle was originally in the 2027 recruiting class for Florida but reclassified ahead of July 31.
Keumajou-Yondui is a unique prospect — he moved to the United States from England in 2025 and decided to sign with Florida over Auburn, Georgia, Miami, Texas, and Texas A&M, among others. The 6-foot-3-inch, 295-pound prospect was rated a three-star recruit by 247Sports.
The Gators continued the in-state recruiting by bringing in Parks and Jordan. Parks played at Tampa Bay Tech, along with current Gators wideout Dallas Wilson. Parks is a 6-foot, 193-pound three-star who recorded 115 tackles with 15 for loss, two interceptions, and six defended passes over 37 varsity games.
