Kadarius Toney scores on incredible punt return after Florida uses a decoy
The Florida Gators were about to enter halftime of Saturday’s home game vs. Kentucky trailing 10-7. That wouldn’t have been a good look for the No. 6 team in the country.
However, that’s when speedster Kadarius Toney sprung into action, returning a punt 50 yards for a crucial touchdown just before the break.
As you can see below, it was a brilliant design by the Gators, who used a decoy to help Toney catch the punt in space:

Florida puts a decoy out for the punt return and fakes out the entire Kentucky roster, leading to a 50 yard return TD for Kadarius Toney.

That play was huge for Florida’s momentum heading into halftime. Now, we’ll see if it carries over into the third quarter.
QB Kyle Trask may need to find Toney for another big play before this game is over.
