Florida State WRs Johnny Wilson, Mycah Pittman expected to be ready for Florida game
Two of the best players on the Florida State offense should be good to go on Friday night against the Florida Gators after not seeing much time last Saturday against Louisiana.
Wide receiver Johnny Wilson only played five snaps in the Seminoles’ 49-17 victory. Slot receiver Mycah Pittman played 12, but he left the field hobbling after an end-around run in the first half, and never returned to the field.
Florida State head coach Mike Norvell, who is and will always be tight-lipped when it comes to injuries, was asked about the two transfer receivers after Tuesday’s practice.
“We’re expecting both of them to be available,” Norvell said.

Wilson leads the Seminoles with 33 catches for 649 yards and five touchdowns this season. Pittman is second on the team with 28 catches (for 305 yards and three touchdowns) and is a major factor in the return game as well.
