Justin Shorter

Shorter played a part-time role in 2020 in a high-octane Florida offense, reeling in 25 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns. The Gators lost a bevy of talent at the skill positions, though, as Kyle Pitts and Kadarius Toney were first round picks in the NFL Draft, and Trevon Grimes also went to the next level. Along with Jacob Copeland, Shorter will have the Herculean task of attempting to replace the standout production of Toney, Grimes and Pitts. Shorter is a huge target at 6-foot-5, 225-lbs, and should prove a red zone threat. Shorter could be a stellar complement to the big-play ability of the aforementioned Copeland, as the latter averaged 18.9 yards per grab last season. A new quarterback in the form of Emory Jones could make for a rocky start to the season, but opportunities should be plentiful for Shorter regardless.
