Florida loses starting DE to season-ending hip surgery
he injury-plagued career of Jordan Sherit has come to an end because of, you guessed it, another injury.
Sherit suffered an injury in last Saturday?s loss to Texas A&M that dropped Florida 1? games behind Georgia in the SEC?s East division. Wednesday, Jim McElwain confirmed that the starting defensive end will miss the remainder of the year after undergoing season-ending hip surgery because of the injury sustained in that game.
As this is the lineman?s final season of eligibility, the collegiate portion of his playing career is over as well.
?It?s a bad deal, man,? the head coach said of the situation.
Sherit?s 2.5 sacks are currently second on the Gators, while his five tackles for loss are tied for third. The redshirt senior missed a handful of games in the 2014 and 2016 seasons because of a variety of injuries. He also missed the last half of his senior season of high school because of a torn ACL
