UF quarterback Will Grier runs onto the field prior to Florida's 14-9 win against Kentucky on Sept. 19, 2015, at Commonwealth Stadium in Lexington, Kentucky.
Both Grier and UF coach Jim McElwain said Monday that the failed drug test resulted from Grier taking an over-the-counter supplement that wasn’t shown to or approved by Florida’s medical staff.
McElwain said UF plans to begin its appeal process on the length of the suspension today.
"It’s something that he feels horrible about," McElwain said. "It’s an honest mistake and yet can be prevented by just checking with our medical staff.
