Florida State true freshman Mario Edwards is now considered the third DE in the rotation.
It is quite a quick move up the depth chart for Edwards, who coaches were considering redshirting even through week one of the season. However, after senior Brandon Jenkins went down for the season and Tank Carradine had to step up into the starting lineup, Edwards was left as the most talented player on the bench.

Mario Edwards - DL - Seminoles

With the loss of senior DE Brandon Jenkins for the season, Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher announced that freshman DL Mario Edwards will not redshirt.

Neither will defensive end Chris Casher. Edwards had previously been upset with his role on the scout team as the Seminoles prepared to redshirt him. The freshman was so disgruntled that he failed to attend a team dinner and the following day's game. Senior Tank Carradine will take the starter's snaps, but the drop off to the next reliable pass rusher could be significant.

Mario Edwards - DL - Seminoles

FSU true freshman DL Mario Edwards is reportedly upset with his role on the team and does not understand why he is being forced to practice with the scout team.

The freshman reportedly missed the team's Friday meal and did not show up for the opener on Saturday. It is unclear if the Seminoles staff plan to redshirt Edwards, but he certainly is not taking well.
