By: Nick Marcinko -- March 8, 2025 Florida edge rusher Tyreak Sapp was one of the more productive players on the Gators’ defense last season, leading the team in sacks (7), tackles for loss (13), and fumble recoveries (2). Sapp’s defensive grade of 90.4 was the highest on the Gators and ranked 9th amongst edge rushers in college football (third in the SEC), according to Pro Football Focus. Sapp’s career year in 2024 left him with a decision to make: Test the waters in the NFL or return to UF for his 5th and final season of college football. The latter was his decision. “Unfinished business”: Tyreak Sapp details decision to return for senior season | GatorCountry.com
Love having both Sapp and Banks back. Big time leadership out there. This has the potential to turn into a great defense
Chauncy at star was the last time i felt like our defense was intimidating. We had tacklers, pass defenders and pass rushers. They made big plays and ended drives. We were starting to see that the second half of last year. I sure hope they pick up where they left off and keep improving.
Sapp lived in LSU's backfield, and he has a plethora of friends waiting to party in every team's backfield this coming season... Can't wait! Sapp is going to be fun to watch. Thank you for posting this story, ET.
