FSU linebacker Omar Graham Jr. went down after a tackle early in the third quarter at No. 3 Miami and later headed to the locker room, Warchant reported. FSU has not given an update on his status.

*As of 9:43 PM ET Saturday: FSU 21, Miami 14, 2:13 - 3rd Quarter. In progress.*

## The play

On third-and-4 from the FSU 46, Miami quarterback D. Mensah hit V. Spafford for 7 yards and a first down at the FSU 39\. ESPN's play-by-play credits Graham and A. Barker with the tackle. The snap came at 12:32 of the third quarter, and Miami called a timeout with 12:22 left. ESPN's play-by-play does not list an injury on the play.

## What FSU reporters said

Dustin Lewis of NoleGameday/On SI [posted](https://x.com/DustinLewisNG/status/2111626625641054708?ref=nolestandard.ghost.io): "#FSU LB Omar Graham Jr. is down after Miami's third-down conversion." In a [follow-up](https://x.com/DustinLewisNG/status/2111626766666149978?ref=nolestandard.ghost.io), Lewis wrote that "Graham Jr. appeared to duck his head on the tackle. Scary collision."

About 10 minutes later, Warchant [reported](https://x.com/Warchant/status/2111629096367137051?ref=nolestandard.ghost.io): "Omar Graham is heading to the locker room."

As of 9:43 PM ET, FSU had not announced anything, and no FSU outlet had reported that Graham returned to the game. Earlier tonight, running back Ousmane Kromah left with what outlets reported was a left ankle injury ([our story](https://nolestandard.ghost.io/ousmane-kromah-injured-miami-left-ankle/)).
