Colorado's Jordan Seaton named to prestigious Outland Trophy watchlist
Seaton joins a list of 50 returning linemen to make the preseason watchlist. He is one of 16 offensive tackles and 10 players from the Big 12 to be named to the watchlist. There are also 15 guards and 10 defensive tackles named to the list.
As a freshman All-American last season, Seaton enters 2025 as one of the Buffs' best players and a leader. He was also an honorable mention All-Big 12 and the honorable mention Big 12 Freshman of the Year by the coaches.
In 2024, Seaton became the first true freshman to start a season opener at tackle in program history and went on to start all 13 games. He allowed three sacks on 611 pass plays and did not allow a sack in 11 of Colorado's 13 games.

Florida QB DJ Lagway practices for the 1st time in camp while recovering from a calf injury
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida quarterback DJ Lagway practiced Saturday for the first time since camp opened, a sign of progress for the highly touted and oft-injured sophomore. Lagway is dealing with a strained calf and was expected to take limited practice reps. He wore a sleeve on his left leg, the same one that caused him to miss a game and a half last season. He strained a hamstring against rival Georgia and missed the following week's game at Texas. Coach Billy Napier has offered no timetable on his star player's return. It's the latest injury issue for Lagway, who missed spring practice with a shoulder injury after undergoing sports hernia surgery. The Gators opened training camp Wednesday. Napier, unlike in previous years, closed viewing periods to media for the first three days. Lagway, who went 6-1 in seven starts as a freshman in 2024, is widely considered a Heisman Trophy contender heading into this season. But he's barely been on the field at a time when he could be making significant strides. He was limited during spring practice because of the right shoulder injury that could eventually need surgery. He resumed throwing in late April and said earlier this month at Southeastern Conference media days he would fully participate in camp. But then he strained a calf muscle while running with the team last week. Lagway completed 60% of his passes for 1,915 yards, with 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions in 2024. He took over the starting role after Graham Mertz tore a knee ligament at Tennessee in October. Behind Lagway are journeyman Harrison Bailey and sophomore Aidan Warner. Bailey played at Tennessee, UNLV and Louisville before transferring to Florida earlier this year. Warner subbed for Lagway last year and was mostly ineffective. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here. AP college football: and
