- DJ Uiagalelei injury update: FSU quarterback could miss rest of season, report says
Florida State played its game against Clemson without starting quarterback DJ Uiagalelei . And reports say FSU might be playing the rest of the season without him, too.
According to CBS Sports and 247 Sports reporter Matt Zenitz , Uiagalelei is expected to miss at least several weeks after getting surgery for a broken finger on his throwing hand. The report says Uiagalelei could be out the rest of the season, effectively ending his college football career.
Uiagalelei was seen before the Seminoles ' game against No. 14 Clemson , his team from from 2020-2022, with a cast on his hand. Backup quarterback Brock Glenn started against the Tigers .
Uiagalelei started FSU's first five games of the season after transferring from Oregon State . He has completed less than 54% of his passes for 1,065 yards and four touchdowns against an ACC-leading six interceptions. He went 12 of 30 for 222 yards, two TDs and three INTs before his injury in last week's 42-16 loss at SMU .
Glenn is expected to be the starting QB in Uiagalelei's stead. The other quarterbacks on the roster are freshman Luke Kromenhoek , freshman Trever Jackson, redshirt sophomore Dylan McNamara and redshirt freshman Michael Grant.
