Notable: Castell was a highly sought-after prospect who committed to Florida over Alabama and Auburn in July. Castell is a safety who can move around on the back end of the defense if needed but the Gators will start him out at safety.

Quotable: “That’s why they’re on me heavy because they’re looking for guys that are versatile who can play corner, safety, and nickel,” he said on where the staff wants him to play. “Y’all might see me all over the place. I like it a lot, it shows how much of a dog I am. I can play whenever.”
