Meet the Florida Gators newest player — a gator!

It may not have much of an arm, but an alligator in southern Florida’s Big Cypress National Preserve showed he can run the football — and swim with it, too.

Sandra Rayman Harrison posted a photo to Facebook of the alligator carrying a football around in its mouth, according to KSAZ-TV.

On social media, users joked about how the reptile appeared to be trying out for the Florida Gators, the football team for the University of Florida.

Others suggested the reptile probably thought the football was a small animal, like a turtle, and was confused as to why it tasted weird.
