Florida released its first depth chart of the regular season on Monday ahead of the Gators’ game against Florida Atlantic.
One notable piece is that Clemson transfer Demarkcus Bowman is not on the two-deep at running back and the starters are listed as Dameon Pierce, or Malik Davis.
On defense, there was some question about the cornerback position opposite Kaiir Elam since Jaydon Hill suffered a season-ending ACL injury. The depth chart reveals that it’ll be redshirt freshman Avery Helm, and highly-rated freshman Jason Marshall, Jr. is listed as Elam’s primary backup.
Jacob Copeland and Ja’Markis Weston are the primary kick returners to replace Kadarius Toney, and Elam will be the punt returner.
