Florida State DB Trey Marshall has torn biceps, could return for bowl
Florida State defensive back Trey Marshall will miss the rest of the regular season, but Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher told Warchant.com that it’s possible Marshall could return for a bowl game.
Marshall, who suffered a torn biceps tendon against Louisville on Saturday, is scheduled to undergo surgery soon.
Marshall, a sophomore, has been the team’s starting nickel cornerback this season and has 21 tackles – sixth-best on the Seminoles. After Marshall went down in the 41-21 win over the Cardinals, seniors Tyler Hunter and Javien Elliott, a former walk-on, saw time on defense. Elliott, who mainly plays on special teams, recorded a big interception in the third quarter.
Fisher told Warchant that freshmen Tarvarus McFadden and Marcus Lewis could also see more time with Marshall out.
The Seminoles, now 6-0 overall and 4-0 in ACC play, face Georgia Tech (2-5, 0-4) on the road on Saturday.
