Singleton Jr. enters his first season at Florida after transferring in from Auburn, where he tallied a team-high 58 catches for 534 yards and three touchdowns in 2025. His catch total was tied for eighth-most in the SEC and he currently has a reception in every game of his collegiate career (36) — the sixth-longest streak in the FBS.
Baugh and Graham each enter their third year with the Gators, with the former leading the team with 1,170 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns while also catching 21 passes for 185 yards, earning All-SEC Second Team honors in the process. The latter led Florida with 76 tackles (36 solo), also adding eight QB hurries, seven tackles-for-loss and two sacks, becoming one of four players in the SEC to post 75-plus tackles and 7.0-plus tackles-for-loss; Graham's four pass breakups were tied for second most among FBS linebackers.
The Panini Senior Bowl is widely regarded as the preeminent college football all-star game and the first stage of the NFL draft process. Each year, the Senior Bowl brings the nation's top prospects to Mobile, Alabama, providing NFL personnel from all 32 teams with an opportunity to evaluate players in a competitive environment. The 2027 Panini Senior Bowl is on Saturday, Jan. 30, 2027, at Hancock Whitney Stadium in Mobile.
