breaking news; Graham Mertz fired by Billy Napier with apparent injury from Miami……..
Mertz immediately showed signs of pain and Florida Senior Director of Sports Health, Paul Silvestri was quick to get out to the senior quarterback. After getting Mertz to his feet, Silvestri led the quarterback directly to the Florida locker room.

The Gators’ offense had just 192 yards, with 71 of those coming on a single Montrell Johnson rushing touchdown in the second quarter. The Canes were leading the Gators 38-10 when Mertz was forced out of the game.
