It’s been one injury after another this season for Florida’s secondary, and the problem is getting worse with yet another starting safety going down.

Coach Jim McElwain announced Monday that senior Nick Washington will miss Saturday’s game against Texas A&M because of a shoulder injury sustained against LSU.

It’s the latest flare-up of the nagging shoulder issue for Washington, the third-leading tackler for the Gators with 29 stops this season.

Washington was expected to team this fall with Marcell Harris, but Harris is out this season with a torn Achilles tendon suffered before preseason camp even starter.
