Florida State QB Tommy Castellanos Leaves Game With Ankle Injury Against Kent State

Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos exited the game against Kent State late in the second quarter due to an apparent ankle injury after being rolled up on by defenders. He was limping as he left the field and did not return for the second half, which was confirmed by the ACC Network broadcast. Prior to his exit, Castellanos had a strong performance, completing 10 of 13 passes for 205 yards with one interception, and rushing seven times for 54 yards and two touchdowns. Freshman quarterback Kevin Sperry replaced Castellanos and took over for the remainder of the game. Although the injury did not appear overly severe, Florida State will closely monitor Castellanos ahead of their upcoming conference play. The Seminoles held a commanding lead of 35-7 at the time of his injury, and Castellanos was praised for his leadership and investment on and off the field throughout the season.
