We are less than a week away from the start of fall camp, which means Gator Country continues breaking down Florida’s 2024 roster.
The Gators return both of their “starting” tight ends from 2023 in Arlis Boardingham and Hayden Hansen, who combined for 915 snaps a season ago. Florida used 12-personnel (two-tight end set) on 30% of their offensive snaps last year, making the tight end position extremely valuable in Billy Napier’s scheme.

Redshirt sophomore Arlis Boardingham
After being sidelined with an injury for the entirety of the 2022 regular season, Arlis Boardingham found significant playing time as a redshirt freshman, hauling in 26 catches for 289 yards and four touchdowns, T-2nd most on the Gators in 2023.
