Injury Updates: Mike Norvell Addresses Key FSU Football Players
Quarterback Situation
Mike Norvell provided an update on the quarterback position, stating that while Jordan Travis remains the starter, Tate Rodemaker has been taking first-team reps. Travis suffered an ankle injury in the game against LSU, and while he is expected to play against Louisville, Norvell wants Rodemaker to be ready if needed.
Running Back Rotation
Norvell also discussed the running back rotation, indicating that Trey Benson and Lawrance Toafili will continue to share carries. Benson has been the more productive back, but Toafili has shown flashes of potential. Norvell wants to keep both players fresh and involved in the offense.
Wide Receiver Depth
Norvell expressed confidence in the depth of his wide receiver group, highlighting the return of Johnny Wilson and the emergence of Mycah Pittman. Wilson missed the first two games of the season due to injury, while Pittman has stepped up in his absence with several big plays.
Defensive Updates
On the defensive side of the ball, Norvell mentioned that defensive tackle Fabien Lovett is day-to-day with a shoulder injury. Lovett is a key member of the Seminoles' front seven, and his absence would be a significant loss. Norvell also expressed concern about the health of cornerback Jarvis Brownlee, who is dealing with a hamstring injury.
Norvell emphasized the importance of getting his players healthy and ready for the upcoming game against Louisville, which is a crucial ACC matchup. The Seminoles need to win to keep their bowl hopes alive, and they will need all hands on deck to do so.
