GAINESVILLE — The Florida Gators will again be without defensive lineman Cece Jefferson.
The 6-foot-1, 252-pound senior remains suspended for academic reasons, UF announced before tonight's SEC opener against Kentucky.
The other six players suspended last week — including receiver Kadarius Toney and Clearwater native Adarius Lemons — will be back.
Starting linebacker David Reese remains out with an injury, as does reserve safety Shawn Davis.
