  08/09/22 - DT *Gervon DexterJr/2023, Florida

  The start of training camp saw players relocating to a team hotel, which meant Gervon Dexter had to say goodbye, temporarily, to his 13-week-old son, Gervon Jr. "That was probably one of my saddest days leaving him," said Florida's hulking defensive lineman. "I can't even explain how good it's been for me being a father. "I'm sure some of you guys know if you have kids, it's not about you anymore, it's about him now. Everything I do now is trying to set his life up for the better." Dexter lost his father, Gerald, in April 2020 at age 50. That was months before the five-star recruit played his first college game. The player's locker features a framed photo of his dad.

While Dexter is a draft-eligible junior with early-round potential, his rawness still shows. Through 25 games and 11 starts at Florida, he has 2.5 sacks and 5.5 tackles for loss. With third-round pick Zach Carter moving on to the Bengals, Dexter needs to ramp up his production on the defensive interior, shifting between tackle and strongside end. An opposing SEC coach told The Athletic in May that Dexter "looks like he was made in a lab" at 6-foot-6 and 310 pounds. But that coach said Dexter's struggles with pad level help offensive linemen move him "two gaps away from where he's supposed to be." - The Athletic
