Florida football QB was deported against Georgia

(This story has been updated from a previous version).

Florida football quarterback DJ Lagway was stretchered off the field during Saturday's game against No. 2 Georgia after suffering a hamstring injury. He couldn't put any weight on his leg and was carried into the cart.

Lagway, a former five-star recruit, served as the Gators' starter after Graham Mertz suffered a season-ending ACL tear against Tennessee. Just before halftime, he gave Florida a 10-3 lead after throwing a 43-yard touchdown to Aidan Mizell in the second quarter.

Lagway came into the game this season with 1,024 passing yards and five touchdowns to five interceptions and 96 rushing yards. He was the No. 7 overall recruit and No. 2 quarterback in the 2024 recruiting class, according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

The crowd chanted “DJ Lagway” as he was carried off the field.
