FSU Defense Reloads for Season Opener | Florida State Seminoles Football News

Florida State’s defense is poised for a major shake-up as they gear up for their season opener against New Mexico State, with Tony White tasked to rebuild and integrate new talent. Daniel Lyons is set to anchor the defensive line, while Mandrell Desir and Deante McCray step into key roles after strong freshman performances. Chris Jones, a transfer, brings needed run-stopping depth, and the WILL linebacker spot remains up for grabs between Mikai Gbayor and Blake Nichelson. In the secondary, Ja’Bril Rawls and Charles Lester III are expected to lead the backfield, while Ma’Khi Jones looks to start at safety and K.J. Kirkland battles CJ Richard Jr. for the boundary safety spot. With fall camp looming, the depth chart is still fluid — and only the most ready players will secure their roles as the season kicks off.

FSU Targets Top Edge Rusher PJ Wilson | Florida State Seminoles Football News

Florida State is already eyeing the 2029 recruiting class, with edge rusher PJ Wilson from Loganville, Georgia, emerging as a top target.

As a freshman, he dominated in just six games with nine tackles, five for loss, four sacks, and a forced fumble. With Georgia also in the mix, FSU is racing to keep Wilson locked in by building trust and showing him he belongs.
