The Seminoles made a couple of adjustments before taking on Pittsburgh.

Florida State didn't remove Quintrevion Wisner from the depth chart. However, the veteran running back was already ruled out due to an injury. True freshman Amari Thomas will make his first start against the Panthers.

The offensive line had a few changes. As expected, sophomore Chavez Thompson is listed as the starting center following Bradyn Welch-Joiner's injury last weekend. Jayden Todd will back him up.

Junior Jon Daniels replaced sophomore Chastan Brown as the backup left tackle behind Xavier Chaplin. Daniels is no longer listed as a third-string right tackle behind Nate Pabst and Chimdia Nwaiwu.

Sophomore punter Ethan Post stepped into the starting role a week ago. He's regarded as a co-starter with Daniel Hughes.

While linebacker Blake Nichelson wasn't added to the depth chart, he's expected to play for the first time since Week 0.
