With the transfer portal window winding down, Florida football is still hosting a handful of players from other schools. Here are the latest developments.

Florida football adds linebacker TJ Bullard from UCF after he entered the transfer portal, adding depth and special teams help for 2026.

By enrolling early, the 18 players will get a chance to take part in spring practices in March and in the Orange and Blue spring game in April. Last season, Vernell Brown III and Jayden Woods were among incoming freshmen who benefitted from enrolling early. Both Brown and Woods played extensively as true freshmen and earned freshman-All SEC honors.

Five former Florida football players accepted invited to the East-Wes Shrine Bowl in Frisco, Texas, a college all-star game for NFL scouts to be held Jan. 27, 2026. Florida Gators edge rusher George Gumbs Jr.

Dan Mullen, who coached Florida football from 2018-21, was named FWAA first-year coach of the year for leading UNLV to a 10-4 record in 2025.

The losses span every level of the roster. Interior offensive lineman Coleton Price, the top-ranked IOL transfer in Cooper Petagna's 247Sports portal rankings, is gone. Linebacker Keaton Thomas leaves after leading the team with 99 total tackles, while safety DJ Coleman and linebacker Emar'rion Winston take proven defensive snaps with them.
