The Florida Gators have secured Air Force tight end transfer Caleb Rillos, who committed to the team as a walk-on. Rillos, impressed by Florida’s facilities and coaching staff, looks forward to contributing as a tight end, showcasing his blocking and receiving skills in Florida’s offensive schemes.
With experience in a heavy run offense at Air Force, Rillos believes Florida’s emphasis on the tight end position in both the running and passing game aligns with his abilities. He aims to become a complete tight end at Florida, leveraging his blocking prowess and hidden receiving skills from his high school basketball background.
As a graduate student studying mechanical engineering, Rillos brings leadership, work ethic, and discipline from his time at Air Force, qualities that Florida values in their young tight end room. He plans to redshirt this season, playing in four games, and aims to earn a scholarship for the following season.
