Florida Gators need Goolsby, Lewis to step up

Regarded as one of the funniest and most well like and respected players on the team, replacing Jake McGee’s presence off the field will be a challenge for the Florida Gators in 2016.

On the field, McGee was a first down machine for the Gators in 2015. His 41 receptions were second to only Demarcus Robinson in 2015 and his four touchdowns tied Antonio Callaway for most.

With McGee gone, C’yontai Lewis and DeAndre Goolsby are being asked to fill that void, after the two combined for 21 catches and three touchdowns a year ago. Both players see the opportunity in front of them and are trying to make the most of it this spring.
