Will Muschamp did the right thing and set the table early for his Florida Gators when he announced that both Jeff Driskel and Treon Harris will both play in the game on Saturday versus Missouri.

Driskel was behind center for the entire game on Saturday night in a 30-27 loss at home against LSU.

Harris did not play following a tumultuous week where the freshman was accused of an alleged sexual assault, removed from the football program indefinitely, and then allowed to return to the team when the accusation was recanted.

This weekend, Muschamp plans to use the leadership of Driskel and the ability of Harris in the home game against the Tigers.

“They both will play this week and we’ll work through the week, and we’ll see how things go,’’ Muschamp said on gatorzone.com. “Right now Jeff will probably start but they’re both going to play.”

Driskel entered the season as the clear-cut No. 1 quarterback with Harris edging out fellow true freshman Will Grier for the backup job. The situation became muddled when Harris replaced a struggling Driskel at Tennessee and led the Gators on a pair of fourth-quarter scoring drives in a 10-9 win.

As the investigation played out last week, Driskel returned to business as usual and started Saturday’s 30-27 loss against LSU, completing 14 of 25 passes for 183 yards, two interceptions and one touchdown.

Meanwhile, cleared by the university to rejoin the team on Friday when the woman dropped her sexual battery complaint, Harris watched Saturday’s game from the coaches’ box along with offensive coordinator Kurt Roper.

Harris has appeared in two games and thrown only six passes, but in each outing he has done something memorable. In a 65-0 win over Eastern Michigan in the season opener, Harris came in during mop-up duty and threw two passes – both touchdowns, 78-yarder to Demarcus Robinson and 70-yarder to Mark Herndon

HARGREAVES TO RETURN (VIA TAMPABAY.COM)

Florida cornerback Vernon Hargreaves is expected to return to practice on Tuesday after suffering a head injury in Saturday night's loss to LSU.

Hargreaves was injured late in the second quarter and missed all of the second half.

Gators defensive tackle Leon Orr (Port Richey) is questionable for Saturday's game with a knee injury.

"We thought he’d be back by now but we’ll see how he works through this week," Florida coach Will Muschamp said.

Running back Matt Jones (Armwood) could be back in practice on Wednesday. He also missed the second half of Saturday's game with an ankle injury he suffered earlier in practice last week. Muschamp said Jones "felt it was a little loose in the game", which is why he was held out.

Also, offensive lineman D.J. Humphries injured his knee in the game, but is expected back at practice on Wednesday.

Wide Receiver Latroy Pittman, who was injured in a collision with 24 seconds remaining in the LSU game and had to be taken off on a cart, was released from the hospital on Sunday, but isn't cleared to return to practice.

"Everything’s come out fine, he’s day-to-day." Muschamp said. "Everything is checked out to be normal."

Pittman's status for the Missouri game is still up in the air.

"I don’t want to go out on a limb right now," Muschamp said. "Everything, thank goodness, take football out of the equation, is fine. There’s a good possibility he’s going to get some physical activity today and tomorrow and we’ll kind of move from there, but until the doctors tell me he's good to go right now, no. But I’m not going to rule it out.”

It appears the Jacksonville Jaguars are sticking to the game plan Frida night – having both Chad Henne and Blake Bortles playing with the first unit against the Detroit Lions.

Expect Chad Henne to play about a quarter and a half and Blake Bortles to play about a quarter. Coach Gus Bradley said he couldn’t commit to anything firmer than that. “I hate to say exact because it could be depending on reps like it was last week, but that’s the idea,” Bradley said Wednesday afternoon. Bortles is supposed to get time with the first-team offense against the Lions, but whether that means he’ll be working with the first-team offense the entire time he’s on the field has not been determined. This according to Michael DiRocco and ESPN.com.

Henne has been steady this preseason, accounting for the team’s only passing touchdown in the team’s loss at Chicago last week. It has been Bortles who has been the talk of the NFL preseason, looking sharp and ahead of the learning curve in offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch’s offense so far this preseason.

The team also announced that Jacques McClendon will start at center against the Lions. Which player comes in next is uncertain, Bradley said. It’s most likely going to be Mike Brewster, who has started the first two preseason games, but sixth-round pick Luke Bowanko is an option.

Bowanko returned to practice on Tuesday after suffering a sprained ankle in last Thursday’s loss to Chicago and took some reps at center on Wednesday. “We’ll find out how he handled today and that, depending on how well he did, will determine our rotation.”

Bowanko is drafted in a pick obtained from San Francisco for former starting quarterback, Blaine Gabbert.

Also, it has been announced that receiver Cecil Shorts and linebacker Dekoda Watson are scheduled to make their preseason debuts. Bradley said they will get the playing time starters normally would in the first preseason game: about 15 snaps. “We’ll see how the situations present themselves,” Bradley said. “The thing to look for with those guys [is] we’ll try to take them out if it’s extended drives.”

Shorts has been out of action with a calf injury. He is the team’s leading pass catcher from last season. He is expected to line up across from rookie Marquis Lee, who caught four balls and a touchdown in the first quarter of last week’s game against the Bears.
