No. 24 Florida (5-3, 3-3 SEC) continues to expand its availability report ahead of Saturday’s 7:45 p.m. ET game against Oklahoma (4-4, 2-3 SEC), but one player is missing the matchup for reasons other than injury.

Defensive lineman Jeremiah McCloud is reportedly suspended for conduct detrimental to the team, and his status with the program will be re-evaluated after this week’s game, according to 247 Sports.

Wide receiver Vernell Brown III remains on the injury report as “doubtful” after suffering a knee strain Sept. 26 in the Gators’ game against Ole Miss. The receiver looked to return last Saturday against Georgia, but he was ultimately sidelined after reinjuring the knee in practice.

“Thursday is when he woke up and the swelling was more noticeable and the range of motion had decreased. So he was not available at practice today,” Gators coach Jon Sumrall said Monday of the setback. “I really don’t have a strong feeling on the timeline because, like I said, everything early in the week last week was trending really positively until the setback on Wednesday.”

Wide receiver Bailey Stockton is listed as “questionable,” along with defensive lineman Emmanuel Oyebadejo.

Stockton, who has dealt with both back and leg injuries this season, has remained steadfast in his motivation to stay on the field. Following the Georgia game, the receiver said he would do “everything” he could to play. Oyebadejo, in his first season with the program, has eight solo tackles and 4.5 sacks this season.

Florida also has four players listed as “out,” including inside linebacker Jaden Robinson, offensive lineman Emeka Ugorji, tight end Evan Chieca and McCloud.
