Florida football injury update: WR Eric Singleton Jr questionable for Auburn

Florida football WR Eric Singleton and DL Emmanuel Oyebadejo are listed as questionable for UF's SEC opener at Auburn.

Florida Gators' WR Eric Singleton Jr. is listed as questionable for their upcoming SEC opener against Auburn, while defensive lineman Emmanuel Oyebadejo is also questionable with a lower leg injury. Both players suffered injuries during Florida's season debut against FAU and were seen wearing boots before the second game against Campbell.

Singleton previously played for Auburn, where he was UF's fastest player in offseason workouts. Oyebadejo, a Jacksonville State transfer, had a strong season at JSU with 6.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks. Coach Jon Sumrall emphasized the importance of prioritizing player health and safety over rushing injured players back. Auburn's team features several key absences, including offensive lineman Tai Buster, edge rusher Joe Phillips, and tight end Hunter Herring.
