GAINESVILLE — The University of Florida reported six new positive COVID-19 cases among the Gators football team as Dan Mullen’s squad looks to move past a recent outbreak that stalled its season.
The data is based on test results from Tuesday of last week through Monday, during which the school said 230 tests were performed.
The No. 10 Gators (2-1) returned to the practice field Monday following a two-week layoff following the outbreak to begin preparations for Saturday’s night game against Missouri (2-2) in the Swamp.
Mullen declined to offer exact numbers, but he said Monday the Gators would have at least the SEC minimum of 53 scholarship players available after having to postpone two games due to a lack of available athletes.
