GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida might only have two receivers it feels comfortable with consistently making plays coming out of spring practice, but the Gators have more than a few pass-catchers.

Sophomore tight end DeAndre Goolsby slips a tackle in Florida's spring game.

The tight end position alone gives Florida as many as four players who can do some damage in the passing game.

Throughout spring, sixth-year senior Jake McGee was able to work the middle of the field for his quarterbacks, while sophomore DeAndre Goolsby and freshmen C'yontai Lewis and Daniel Imatorbhebhe also showed flashes of becoming playmakers in the passing attack.

"I think I’ve talked about this," coach Jim McElwain said following Saturday's spring game. "I thought our tight end group was young, but you know what, you’ve got some guys who will have a chance to be pretty good there and give us an opportunity."

Each has a bit of a different skill set.

McGee is the biggest and most well-rounded as the bunch. He'll be the starter barring a big surprise in fall camp.

Goolsby offers a little more in the way of experience than the two freshmen, and he's a smooth pass-catcher who can also play some H-back.

Lewis has similar qualities but is a bit more fluid as an athlete, while Imatorbhebhe probably has the best size and athleticism of the young trio, though he could be headed for a redshirt due to the depth at the position.

Saturday's spring game was a chance for a couple to get involved, though McGee (broken leg) and Imatorbhebhe (undisclosed) sat out.

"I’m excited about that group," McElwain said.

Lewis might have been the headliner Saturday, catching a 35-yard pass and hauling in a 5-yard touchdown reception to finish with four catches for 54 yards and the score.

"He’s had a pretty good spring," McElwain said. "He really enjoys practicing. It’s important to him. He’s still making some declaration and communication mistakes, especially in the run game, but he’s a guy who’s important. He’ll be able to play for us."

So will a handful of other players he was competing with this spring.

Florida's actually deep somewhere on offense, and McElwain has every intention of using that to his advantage. The Gators will play a lot of two-tight-end sets in 2015, and this time that might not be a bad thing.
