Florida sees contributing DL opt for transfer portal after 1 season

D’Antre Robinson was a freshman contributor for Florida in 2024, but the defensive lineman is looking to continue his college football career elsewhere. Per multiple reports, Robinson has entered his name into the transfer portal.

It’s not the first time Robinson has changed teams. A former 247Sports Composite 4-star recruit out of Orlando (Florida) Jones High School, Robinson initially signed to play for Texas. After the Longhorns lost defensive line coach Bo Davis to LSU, Robinson asked to be released. He then signed with UF in January 2024.

Robinson, listed at 6-3 and 303 pounds on UF’s spring 2025 roster, made 11 appearances for the Gators as a true freshman. He finished the 2024 campaign with 17 tackles, including 7 solo stops, 3 TFLs and 1.5 sacks. Robinson also had a fumble recovery and a QB hurry.

Like many freshmen, Robinson came on strong at the end of his first year. In the regular-season finale against Florida State, Robinson logged 27 snaps, his season-high. Robinson made his first-career start against Tulane in the Gasparilla Bowl, logging 3 solo tackles in the victory.

Robinson’s departure is a blow to Florida’s depth at the position. It will be interesting to see what’s next for both parties.
