Gators may get Brantley back for Georgia

Florida quarterback John Brantley looks like has a much better chance to play this Saturday against Georgia. Head coach Will Muschamp said Monday that the senior wasn’t practicing last week, but will participate in drills this week in a limited role.

“I think again, as of today on Monday he’s probable for the game,” Muschamp said. ”We expect his reps to increase as the week goes.”

“I fully expect him to continue to progress through the week unless we hit something we can’t predict.”

Assuming Brantley is a go, the backup job between Jeff Driskel and Jacoby Brissett should be announced later in the week. Brissett started both games against LSU and Auburn with Brantley out. Brantley originally suffered a lower leg injury against Alabama. The injury did not require surgery.
