UF cornerback Duke Dawson says he will play, but coach Jim McElwain is not so sure.
Dawson sustained a head injury during this past Saturday’s win against Tennessee, leading McElwain to call the fifth-year senior “highly questionable” for Saturday’s visit to Kentucky.
“We’ll see where that is as we go throughout the week,” McElwain said Monday.
Amid McElwain’s press conference, though, Dawson tweeted, “Everything is fine, I will be playing this upcoming Saturday against UK."
Dawson’s absence would be a big loss for UF. He had a pick-six against Michigan and prevented a Tennessee touchdown with a goal-line interception.
