UF’s passing game is going to have a very different look to it this fall, and that has very little to do with Billy Napier calling the shots now.
Five of the top-7 pass-catchers from the 2021 team are gone. The two players among the top-7 who return, Justin Shorter and Xzavier Henderson, plus Trent Whittemore, have combined for 130 catches in their careers. The other six scholarship wideouts have totaled 16 receptions in their careers.
That’s not exactly a great recipe for success given the continued uncertainty with the offensive line and Anthony Richardson’s inconsistencies at quarterback.
