The Homestead, Florida, native made it clear he intends to continue playing college football, although he has yet to reveal where he plans to transfer.
Worton saw little action during his three years with the Gators, leaving the school with career totals of 10 receptions for 126 yards and two touchdowns.
He reeled in just four passes for 45 yards during a 2016 campaign that saw Florida struggle to get consistent production out of the passing game. Worton appeared in only five games because of an ankle injury that hampered him during the season.
When Worton signed on to play for the Gators in 2014, Scout listed him as a 3-star recruit and rated him as the No. 156 wideout in his class.
Florida will return nearly all of its top pass-catchers in 2017, including leading receiver Antonio Callaway.
