GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida's bad luck with its tight ends continued Monday with coach Will Muschamp's announcement that freshman Colin Thompson will have a second surgery to repair a fractured bone in his right foot and will miss at least two months.

That leaves the Gators with three healthy tight ends, none of whom has caught a pass in a game.

I hate to see guys get hurt. This is the first time in a while I haven't been scared of florida. We have to wear down their d early to be successful. Based on last year's game, I expect muschamp to blitz heavy.

Jordan Reed will be ready for the season opener.

He's caught a pass in a game.

From ESPN article:

Thompson, 6-foot-4 and 255 pounds, was expected to get significant playing time as a freshman, especially with the loss of A.C. Leonard (transfer) and the MCL sprain that has kept starter Jordan Reed out for more than a week.

Muschamp said Reed participated in Monday morning's walk-through and was hopeful the tight end could return to practice in a noncontact capacity on Tuesday for the Gators.

Reed is the only tight end on the roster who has caught a pass in a game. The redshirt junior has 34 career catches for 386 yards and three touchdowns.
