Full-go for fall camp Wilson (foot) is "full go" for fall camp, but the staff is going to be cautious with him to ensure he'll be healthy for the start of the 2026 season, Max Bernstein of The Alligator...

Impact Wilson dropped 15 pounds during the offseason, according to Andrew Abadie of PineBeltSports.com, and he's drawing a lot of attention with his presence now that he's healthy.

He was limited to just four games in 2025, making 12 catches on 23 targets for 174 yards and three scores.

Out for spring, probable for fall Wilson (foot) is out for the spring but expected to recover for the fall, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Wilson out for the spring means at least a few months will be needed before he can get 100 percent clearance. But overall, his physical recovery is just to ensure he enters the 2026 season healthy, which remains on track. Wilson will just have to catch up, but his promising first season suggests he can do just that sometime in the fall.

Doesn't practice out of precaution Wilson (foot) did not practice Tuesday out of "an abundance of caution," the team announced.

Impact While Wilson was held on the sidelines for Tuesday's practice, the Gators said the sophomore wide receiver would have been able to play if Florida had a game Tuesday. Wilson underwent season-ending foot surgery in 2025, which is why the team is taking a cautious approach. He caught 12 passes for 174 yards and three touchdowns across four appearances as a true freshman.

Limited to begin spring Wilson (foot) is limited to begin spring ball, Zach Abolverdi of On3.com reports.

Impact For 2025, Wilson underwent season-ending surgery on his right foot and will redshirt the year. However, he recovered from said injury and is dealing with a new one on the same foot. On the plus side, Wilson is not out long-term, so there is at least a slight chance he becomes available before the summer. If not, that is the next time Wilson can test his injured foot.

With his season officially over, Wilson played in just four games on the season, opening the possibility of a redshirt for his freshman season.
