Dante Zanders, Florida, Player News
|
When Dante Zanders removed his name from the transfer portal in early January and returned to Florida football, it came with a vote of confidence from new head coach Billy Napier. "He told me, if I put my faith in him, he'd put his faith in me," Zanders said. "So that's what I did." An offseason position switch from defensive line back to tight end has rejuvenated Zanders, who is looking to carve out a role in the offense. At first, Zanders said he was nervous about the change, because at 6-foot-5 and 2 91 pounds, he felt he lost the agility needed to run routes.But he slimmed down to 255 pounds through the spring and summer and now feels ready to take on the new job. "Napier asked me like, 'Hey, these guys are banged up and we need more tight en ds in the room, is there any way you can help us?'" Zanders said last week. "I just stepped up. Same thing happened sophomore year when I went from tight end to defensive end. They asked me to move and I'm a team player so I'm just like ... Whatever is b est for the team." In two seasons on defense, Zanders was a rotational player on the defensive front, finishing with a combined 11 tackles, half a tackle for loss and half a sack. He's taken his knowledge from playing defense back to his role on offense in camp. - Gainesville Sun
