Florida State linebackers expect strong season under Mike Norvell

As fall camp begins on July 29, the Florida State Seminoles' linebacking corps is poised for a strong season. Coach Mike Norvell adds transfer Chris Jones from Southern Miss, who averaged 10 tackles per game last year and earned All-Sunbelt honors. Other key players include Blake Nichelson, Omar Graham Jr., and Caleb LaVallee, who is returning from injury. Karon Maycock, a freshman prospect, has impressed in spring practice and could contribute early this season. The Seminoles will host New Mexico State on August 29 to kick off their 2026 campaign.
