Florida State star WR Johnny Wilson out for Syracuse game
While Keon Coleman is making plenty of plays against Syracuse, the second part of FSU’s two-headed monster at receiver is out for the game.
Johnny Wilson was unable to suit up for the Seminoles after going down with an injury last weekend against Virginia Tech.
Wilson left last week’s win over Virginia Tech early in the second half with an injury. FSU head coach Mike Norvell was unsure how serious the injury was immediately after the game. However, Wilson Tweeted a positive update following the matchup.
“I’m straight! Love these boys man!” he posted.
Norvell did provide an update on Wilson earlier this week and said that he was hopeful he would be able to play.
“Yea, you know, I mean it’s going to be something that we see as we go throughout the course of the week,” Mike Norvell said on Monday. “Johnny was feeling better yesterday. And so we’re excited about where we think it can go. But ultimately, you take it day-by-day this week. I thought he did a wonderful job there in the first half on Saturday. He really has taken his game to another level just in how he played and what he’s been able to do. So hopeful to be able to get him back rolling here early in the week.”
Johnny Wilson caught four passes for 54 yards and two touchdowns, prior to going down with the injury against Virginia Tech.
So far this season, Wilson has 20 catches for 357 yards and two touchdowns.
With Wilson out, it was expected that Keon Coleman would get more opportunities. He has made the most of them thus far.
