The Florida State Seminoles are starting the spring football season in style.

Florida State players returned to the locker rooms on Sunday night ahead of spring ball, and they were met with a brand-new, state-of-the-art locker room renovation, which prompted immense excitement from the team.

The Seminoles athletic department managed to finish the renovated locker rooms at Doak Campbell Stadium in perfect timing, with spring ball just on the horizon. Moreover, with recruiting starting to ramp up, head coach Mike Norvell will have brand-new toys to flaunt when recruits visit Florida State. Several recruits began taking more unofficial visits to Florida State, among other colleges, this month, to get a feel for what spring football practice might look like.

Last season, Florida State finished with a 5-7 overall record, a disappointing finish for Norvell in his staff during their second year. It was, however, an improvement from the 3-6 campaign in 2020, and Florida State will head into the 2022 season with a renewed sense of excitement – not just because of the locker rooms, of course, but because the Seminoles believe they have the pieces to compete in the ACC.

Joyner, 31, is set to return to New York following a 2021 season that was ended after one game thanks to a torn tricep in their season opener against the Carolina Panthers. He didn’t record a single tackle in the the loss.

Previously, the FSU product spent his first five seasons in the league with the Rams, including their last two seasons in St. Louis from 2014-2016. He was a second round selection (41st overall) by the then-St. Louis Rams where he’d go on to have a decent rookie campaign appearing in 10 games (including one start) and amassed 40 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, 2 pass deflections and 1 sack.

Joyner has been a starter in every season since, including his two-year stint with the Raiders. Once he arrived in New York, Joyner hopped right into the Jets’ starting lineup. Expect him to do the same as he enters his ninth season in the NFL.
