GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida cornerback Marcus Roberson was on the field for all three of the Gators' spring practices last week -- which is something coach Will Muschamp wasn't sure would be possible last November.
In fact, Muschamp wondered if Roberson's career was over.
The 6-foot, 180-pound sophomore missed the final three games of the 2011 season after suffering a neck injury in UF's loss at South Carolina on Nov. 12. Muschamp said Monday he didn't remember the exact medical terminology, just that Roberson suffered a "displacement in the neck area." There was some concern that Roberson's career might be finished after just 10 games.
