Florida QB Feleipe Franks Announces He'll Either Transfer or Enter NFL Draft

Feleipe Franks is leaving Florida, the Gators quarterback announced Sunday on Instagram.

"It has been my dream to play at the University of Florida. To play for a top program and contribute to winning games," Franks wrote. "I have been so fortunate to meet as many amazing people as I have while being here. Coaches, players and fans as well. My heart will always be a part of the Gator family. ... I plan on exploring my options of entering the NFL draft or playing my final year elsewhere."

Franks opened 2019 as Florida's starting quarterback but suffered a season-ending ankle injury in the team's 29-21 win over Kentucky on Sept.
