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: "#FSU LB Omar Graham Jr. is down after Miami's third-down conversion." In a follow-up, Lewis wrote that "Graham Jr. appeared to duck his head on the tackle. Scary collision."

About 10 minutes later, Warchant reported: "Omar Graham is heading to the locker room."

No FSU source had reported how he left the field, what the injury is, or whether he can return. 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). Follow along on our live blog.

Next up: FSU at No. 3 Miami continues tonight on ESPN. We'll report any update FSU gives on Graham.
