Observations from Thursday’s Florida State football practice|FSU Hot Topics|Team BattleGround|College BattleGround

Due to lightning, Florida State’s practice on Thursday was held inside the indoor practice facility. FSU’s game prep for Alabama continued in front of scouts from the Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals and Pittsburgh Steelers.

Note: Today’s Florida State football practice was a little different from the perspective of the media. We weren’t allowed to film highlights and were only allowed to take photographs.

Offense:

Taking snaps on the offensive line on Thursday from left to right were; Derrick Kelly, Landon Dickerson, Alec Eberle, Brock Ruble and Rick Leonard

Also taking snaps on the offensive line, left to right, were; Josh Ball, Ethan Frith, Corey Martinez, Mike Arnold and Josh Ball

The Florida State running backs were practicing balls security once again.

The quarterbacks were also working with the wide receivers as they do every practice.

Defense:

Imagine Derwin James running some pursuit drills.

Special Teams:

Ricky Aguayo made all four of his field goals from 45 yards or closer. The only one he missed was a field goal of 49 yards, a distance we had not seen him kick from in fall camp. The kick had the distance, but was wide left.

Injuries/Absent:

Once again, we are not allowed to report on injuries or who was absent from practice until head coach Jimbo Fisher addresses it following practice. This section will be updated when he does so.

Already announced were the season-ending injuries to offensive linemen Baveon Johnson (knee) and Jauan Williams (shoulder). Both had surgery.
