Kentucky injury report ahead of Gator Bowl
The Kentucky Wildcats have just two players on the injury report ahead of the Gator Bowl.
Jordan Dingle's injury update
Wildcats tight end Jordan Dingle is dealing with an undisclosed injury but will be playing in the Gator Bowl on Friday.
Dingle entered the transfer portal but decided to withdraw his name and stay with Kentucky. It was great news for many Wildcats players to see Dingle remain with Kentucky.
“I’m excited to see my guy back. We’ve built a relationship over the past two years,” Josh Kattus said. “Obviously, he’s a great tight end and he helps his team a lot. Off the field and on the field. Definitely really excited to have him back.”
This season, Dingle recorded 11 receptions for 198 yards.
Josh Kattus' injury update
Kentucky tight end Josh Kattus is questionable to play in the Gator Bowl with an undisclosed injury.
