It’s been a rough year for the Florida Gators thanks to a string of injuries to key starters and they have taken yet another hit. Starting offensive tackle Tyler Moore has been lost for the year after suffering a broken arm in a scooter accident.

Yes, a scooter accident.

From Matt Hayes of Sporting News:

If it wasn’t tough enough losing another starter, the way that the injury occurred only makes it worse.
