Tyson Carter - Suddenly back in passing game Carter caught five passes for 72 yards against Missouri State on Saturday.

Impact Carter had not had a catch since Week 4, so it is hard to tell what, if anything, this performance means.

Kyle McNeal - Notches 73 yards McNeal caught four passes for 73 yards versus Missouri State on Saturday.

Impact Week by week, McNeal's numbers have improved. Four weeks ago he had 33 yards, and in each week since his numbers have risen up to this point.

Devonte Lyons - Carries the offense in win Lyons ran 24 times for 216 yards and two touchdowns and added two catches for 32 yards against Missouri State on Saturday.

Impact Lyon was FIU's offense in a 23-20 win, as he did have almost as many rushing yards as the team had passing yards. He hasn't been doing this all season, but Lyons certainly had the case for big carries down the stretch for a team that needs to go 2-1 to be bowl eligible.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

JJ Kohl - Two turnovers Kohl went 18-for-26 for 218 yards and an interception against Missouri State on Saturday. He also ran for 23 yards, but lost a fumble.

Impact FIU got the win, but Kohl did his best to prevent that from happening. He has a real issue with turnovers, and while he's held onto the job this far, Kohl could be one-and-done as the program's starter.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Greg Gaines - Won't play versus Missouri State Gaines will not play in Saturday's matchup versus Missouri State, per the Conference USA availability report.

Impact Gaines will miss his first game of the season as the Panthers host the Bears in Week 10. The 6-foot-3 senior wideout has tallied 10 receptions for 132 yards across eight games this season after transferring in from Rhode Island. Gaines will have his next opportunity to suit up in Week 11 against Delaware.

Jojo Stone - Catches TD Stone caught two passes for 13 yards and a touchdown against Liberty on Saturday.

Impact A touchdown is nice, but after a good start Stone has three catches over his last five games.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle McNeal - Nets 56 yards receiving McNeal had six catches for 56 yards against Liberty on Saturday.

Impact This represents McNeal's season high in receptions, but also in receiving yards, and the latter is not enticing.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Maguire Anderson - Held to 28 yards Anderson caught five passes for 28 yards Saturday versus Liberty.

Impact Anderson's production has dropped considerably alongside a drop in play from QB JJ Kohl. He's been held under 35 yards in three of his last four games, and under 60 in four of his last five.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Devonte Lyons - Rushes for 52 yards Lyons ran 10 times for 52 yards and caught three passes for 27 yards against Liberty on Saturday.

Impact This is Lyons' third game in a row with over 25 receiving yards, and his fourth game in a row with over 50 rushing yards. His main issue, though, is that he has a single touchdown all season.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

JJ Kohl - TD, INT Kohl went 21-for-28 for 164 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against Liberty on Saturday.

Impact Kohl was precise, but 28 passes to generate 164 yards is not good no matter how you slice it, especially in a blowout loss. This was the fourth time in five games Kohl was under 200 yards passing.

Deshawn Purdie, Kam Davis lead Liberty in overwhelming 49-10 rout of FIU

Deshawn Purdie threw for 227 yards and a touchdown, and Kam Davis ran for two scores as Liberty overwhelmed Florida International 49-10 on Saturday

OCTOBER 31 • Associated Press

Donovan Giles - Available Saturday Giles (undisclosed) is set to suit up for Saturday's contest versus Liberty, per the Conference USA availability report.

Impact Giles missed last week's contest against Middle Tennessee but had extended time to recover and is slated to take the field Saturday. The wideout serves as a depth option in the receiving corps, so he is not expected to play a major role in the offense.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Jojo Stone - Will suit up in Week 9 Stone (undisclosed) will play in Saturday's contest versus Liberty, per the Conference USA availability report.

Impact Stone was deemed doubtful earlier in the week, but his absence from FIU's injury report ahead of kickoff Saturday is a positive indicator that he should be available for the team. He has been a reliable target this season, hauling in 14 receptions for 185 yards and one score across five contests.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Anthony Carrie - Available Saturday Carrie (undisclosed) is ready to roll for Saturday's matchup versus Liberty, per the Conference USA availability report.

Impact Carrie will return to action against the Flames after sitting out in Week 8 due to undisclosed reasons. The 6-foot redshirt junior back has logged 82 carries for 258 yards and a touchdown across six games, adding on seven receptions for 48 yards through the air. Carrie and the Panthers will look to bounce back against Liberty following back-to-back losses.

OCTOBER 31 • ROTOWIRE

Amari Isaac - Moves to tight end Isaac has switched positions from wide receiver to tight end, per Kevin Barral of Fish on First.

Impact Isaac had yet to log a catch at wideout through a season and a half at Florida International. He'll try his hand in the Panthers' tight end room.

OCTOBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Jojo Stone - Doubtful at Liberty Stone (undisclosed) is doubtful to face Liberty in Week 9, per Kevin Barral of Fish on First.

Impact Stone looks set to miss his first game of the season. The wideout has 14 grabs for 185 yards and two touchdowns this season, but he has just one catch for two yards over the past four games.

OCTOBER 21 • Associated Press

Maguire Anderson - Held to 34 yards receiving Anderson caught three passes for 34 yards against MTSU on Tuesday.

Impact Anderson started the season strong, but he's been poor to mediocre in three of his last four games. Of course, in the other game he had 133 yards and two touchdowns, so things are a bit of a mess at the moment.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle McNeal - Reels in TD McNeal caught two passes for 49 yards and a score against MTSU on Tuesday.

Impact This is McNeal's first touchdown of the season, and he only had one last season, so clearly he does not have a nose for the end zone.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Sterling Joseph - Catches TD Joseph ran three times for 12 yards and caught one pass for a 21-yard touchdown Tuesday against MTSU.

Impact Anthony Carrie (undisclosed) missed this game, and Joseph still only got four touches. That isn't a good sign.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Devonte Lyons - Continues gaining steam Lyons ran 19 times for 115 yards and caught four passes for 32 yards against MTSU on Tuesday.

Impact Lyons started slow, but he's been on a strong run the last three games and kept getting better. Over these three games he has 48 carries for 266 yards and a touchdown and has added seven catches for 68 yards.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

JJ Kohl - Three TDs, INT Kohl went 15-for-28 for 179 yards, three touchdowns, and an interception against MTSU on Tuesday.

Impact Obviously, it's had to quibble with three touchdowns...and yet. Kohl was far from efficient, and he was held under 200 yards passing for the third time in four games. He has nine turnovers against 11 touchdowns on the season, and that tells the real story.

Brown and Bourgeois power Middle Tennessee past Florida International 26-23

Terrence Brown rushed for 158 yards and a touchdown, and Dominic Bourgeois made four field goals as Middle Tennessee held off Florida International 26-23 on Tuesday night

OCTOBER 21 • Associated Press

Donovan Giles - Unsurprisingly inactive Giles (undisclosed) did not play during Tuesday's game against Middle Tennessee State.

Impact Giles has been unused throughout Florida International's 2026 season, so the questionable version of him not being utilized against Middle Tennessee should come as no surprise. The wide receiver's return timeline is unclear.
