Florida football quarterback DJ Lagway was carted off the field during Saturday's game against No. 2 Georgia after suffering an apparent injury to his left leg. He was unable to put any weight on his leg and was carried into the cart, appearing to be holding his thigh muscles.

Lagway, a former five-star recruit, served as the Gators' starter after Graham Mertz suffered a season-ending ACL tear against Tennessee. Just before halftime, he gave Florida a 10-3 lead after throwing a 43-yard touchdown to Aidan Mizell in the second quarter.

Lagway came into the game this season with 1,024 passing yards and five touchdowns to five interceptions and 96 rushing yards. He was the No. 7 overall recruit and No. 2 quarterback in the 2024 recruiting class, according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

The crowd chanted “DJ Lagway” as he was carried off the field.
