Florida is trying to bolster its starting lineup, which includes Eugene Wilson III and Kahleil Jackson, by adding depth and playmaking potential. Badger might be a good fit. Additionally, Wisconsin wide receiver Chemire Dike, who is acquainted with returning starter quarterback Graham Mertz, was added by Florida.

Florida is hoping that Badger makes an impact similar to another ASU transfer, Ricky Pearsall, who led the Gators in receivers for two seasons before being picked in the first round of the NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers.
