Florida Football: Way-too-early 2022 depth chart projection
Secondary

Starting safeties: Rashad Torrence, Trey Dean III
Backups: Donovan McMillon, Mordecai McDaniel
Starting Star: Tre’Vez Johnson

This is the most experienced unit on the 2022 Florida defense. While starting cornerback Kaiir Elam is gone to the NFL, there is a good mixture of talent and experience that is back for the Gators in the secondary.
Jason Marshall Jr. and Avery Helm are both back at corner. Marshall might be the most talented of the two and was a five-star recruit in 2021. Helm was a starter last season and Florida is glad to see him returning.
At safety, Rashad Torrence and Trey Dean III are back for another season as the starters. These two guys will give some of Florida’s talented young guys at safety a chance to sit and learn this season. Tre’Vez Johnson is back to start at the star position.
Two guys to keep an eye on in the spring at safety are Kamari Wilson and Devin Moore. Wilson was one of the top safeties in this year’s class and a great steal for Napier and his staff.
