Florida State did not release a depth chart on Monday, but here are six context clues from Mike Norvell
Key Points:
- Florida State head coach Norvell announced that the team will not release a depth chart throughout the season to maintain competition and accurately reflect the fluidity in player roles on offense and defense.
- Norvell emphasized that player performance in practice and games will determine starting roles week-to-week, with multiple personnel groupings making static depth charts less meaningful.
- The Seminoles have strong depth on the offensive line, with 7-8 capable players, and are evaluating various position groupings as camp progresses, including opportunities for younger players due to injuries and camp limitations.
- First-year receiver Jasen Lopez and freshmen linebackers Izayia Williams and Jordan Crutchfield have shown promising development and could make early impacts, especially on special teams.
- The tight end group is versatile but undersized, with key players like Landen Thomas and Desirrio Riles expected to contribute in two-tight-end packages, while the quarterback competition behind starter Daniels is heating up with JUCO transfer Marshall impressing in camp.
