Gervon Dexter Sr., an impressive talent drafted in the second round from the University of Florida, brings a level of athleticism that serves as a crucial addition to the Bears' defensive line. During his formative years at Lake Wales High School in Lake Wales, Florida, Dexter primarily focused on basketball, showcasing his skills on both the school team and a travel team that included the current NBA power forward for the Toronto Raptors, Scottie Barnes. However, it was in his final two years in high school that Dexter made the transition to football, embarking on a path that led him to the NFL.
