The starting QB for the Aggies showed up on the injury report
Florida Football is facing its own injury challenges as they prepare for Saturday’s game against Texas A&M. The Gators’ initial injury report listed 16 players as questionable or out, with Tre Wilson being the most notable absence.
However, according to SEC regulations, the injury report was revised on Thursday, revealing that Texas A&M had added a key starter to the list as questionable.
Is Florida Football Seeing Through a Smoke Screen? Starting quarterback Conner Weigman was unexpectedly tagged as “questionable” on Thursday night. This designation suggests he has a 50/50 chance of playing against the Gators.
His addition to the report surprised many, as he wasn’t mentioned in the initial report on Wednesday, and there were no signs during the game against McNeese State that he had sustained any injury.
Many are now speculating whether this is a strategic move by the Aggies. Jeff Tarpley from GigEm247 suggested that Weigman has been experiencing some discomfort, indicating that this may not just be a tactic.
Weigman had a tough outing against Notre Dame, completing only 12 of 30 passes for 100 yards. Under pressure, he managed just 2 of 11 completions, and even when he had a clean pocket, his completion rate was barely above 50%.
If Weigman can’t play, Marcel Reed would likely step in as the next option. Reed, a former borderline four-star recruit from the 2023 class, filled in for Weigman last week, completing 5 of 11 passes for 71 yards.
