Florida State running back and kick returner Jaylin Lucas is out for the season, coach Mike Norvell announced on Monday.
Lucas sustained an undisclosed injury during the Seminoles’ 28-13 loss to Boston College on Sept. 2. Florida State had an open date this past weekend following a disastrous 0-2 start to the season.
Lucas accumulated 88 all-purpose yards in two games: 36 on two kickoff returns, 39 on three receptions and 13 on two rushing attempts.
He transferred to Tallahassee after two seasons at Indiana, where he racked up 546 rushing yards, 329 receiving yards and 1,163 kick-return yards in 23 games from 2022-23.
Lucas has a redshirt year available and will have two remaining seasons of eligibility, according to Norvell.
“I know he’s going to do a great job of continuing to help the guys on the field,” Norvell said.
