With the season opener less than two weeks away, Florida starting quarterback DJ Lagway participated in his first 11-on-11 practice of fall camp on Monday.According to multiple media reports, Lagway still wore a noncontact jersey as he participated in the live drills for the first time since opening camp in a walking boot.Lagway could not throw during Florida’s spring practices due to a shoulder injury. He said at Southeastern Conference media days in July that he would be a full participant in fall camp.Then, he hurt his lower leg during a team run, according to reports. It was diagnosed as a calf strain.”He took team reps today, which was good, and obviously he was hitting,” coach Billy Napier told reporters on Monday. “He had a great full, full stack of throws last week, four days in a row. Didn’t scrimmage, but did quite a bit of work that day. So yeah, he’s feeling much better and he’s moving around well.”Lagway was the No. 1-rated quarterback in the high school Class of 2024. He took over as the Gators’ starter midway through 2024 and was named a freshman All-American after throwing for 1,915 yards, 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions in 12 games.
