Chomping at Bits comes stocked with the best Florida Gators links and news we can find, and maybe some other stuff.

Florida drops first 2021 depth chart: More analysis later today, but the obvious spots to take note of are right tackle, where Jean Delance persists; slot receiver, where we see the greatest wide receiver of all time; and the corner spot opposite Kaiir Elam, where Avery Helm is, er, at the helm.

Dan Mullen’s final preseason presser: I didn’t watch yesterday — my Monday was busier than expected — but it was not a groundbreaking session, by all accounts.

Kamar Wilcoxson tweets about knee injury, surgery: The usual way of handling news about an athlete’s injury goes out the door when the athlete controls the news cycle.

Wilcoxson came to Florida in 2020 as an early-enrolling defensive back who hadn’t found a spot; lately, he’d been working more at safety, and he was fairly likely to play in a reserve role this fall. His recovery from what Mullen termed a “knee issue” seems likely to keep him out for at least a significant period of this season.

Yousef Mugharbil hospitalized after scooter crash: The freshman lineman crashed into a semi truck on a scooter, and the person giving the official quote from GPD called his injuries “serious road rash.” So thank goodness that wasn’t worse. (Isabella Douglas, The Independent Florida Alligator)
