Mike Norvell gives update on Johnny Wilson, Duke Cooper
Mike Norvell offered an update on the status of Johnny Wilson after the receiver left Florida State’s 47-7 win over Dusquesne with an injury. The injury came on a 51-yard catch and run in the first quarter of the game.
Norvell said the they’ll monitor Wilson’s status through Sunday and make a further assessment then. He also shared more about cornerback Omarion ‘Duke’ Cooper, who missed the game with an injury.
“Yeah, you know, Johnny’s had a great, great fall camp and it was good to see that carry over. He made a big play on a vertical post. Came up a little ginger,” Norvell said in his postgame presser. “He got out there and kind of moved around. We’ll see where that goes as we get to tomorrow.”
Cooper did well late in the week, according to Norvell, but will at best be ready by the beginning of next week after missing Saturday’s contest.
“Duke, unfortunately, was unavailable tonight, but I like how he’s progressed here towards the back part of the week and looking forward to hopefully having him back in full effect here at the start of the week,” Norvell said.
