Overview

  • Robinson suffered a torn ACL in the game against Clemson and will miss the remainder of Florida State’s 2026 season.
  • He leads the team with 438 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 24 catches this year after returning to FSU following a 1,000-yard season.
  • Florida State fired head coach Mike Norvell earlier in the stretch of losses and has named Rick Stockstill as interim coach to run the remaining games.
  • Robinson’s absence further weakens an offense already hit by season-ending injuries, including running back Ousmane Kromah, and leaves fewer playmakers for the lineup.
  • Under recent NCAA rules Robinson would have an extra year of college eligibility if he opts to return, a decision that will shape both his recovery path and his NFL prospects.
