Florida QB DJ Lagway Sidelined to Open Fall Camp, with His Latest Injury Being a Calf Strain
GAINESVILLE, FLORIDA, JUL 28 – DJ Lagway enters fall camp with a minor lower leg injury but is expected to play this season despite previous shoulder and sports hernia surgeries, reports say.
- Florida quarterback DJ Lagway opened fall camp sidelined due to a calf strain while wearing a walking boot as of July 30, 2025.
- Lagway's latest injury follows a hamstring strain suffered on November 2, 2024, that sidelined him for the November 9 game against Texas.
