PFF’s 2023 preseason All-SEC teams include four Gators
Pro Football Focus released its All-Southeastern Conference teams on Monday, which included a quartet of Florida Gators among the hallowed ranks.
The Orange and Blue placed a pair of defenders on the first team: cornerback Jason Marshall and edge defender Princely Umanmielen. Billy Napier and Co. are hoping for standout seasons from the two juniors — especially given Marshall has not yet fulfilled his promise as a five-star prep talent. Umanmielen simply needs to continue his progress to match his potential.
Running back Trevor Etienne and left tackle Austin Barber were third-team mentions — and important ones. With the quarterback situation less than optimal heading into the 2023 campaign, the Gators will be relying heavily on the ground game. Everyone knows Etienne is the younger brother of an NFL star and the pressure will be on him to match his sibling’s talent.
