Kejon Owens - Rushes for 63 yards Owens ran 18 times for 63 yards versus Missouri State on Wednesday.
Impact This was a tough game for Owens, but largely he's had an excellent season. Owens has rushed for 872 yards and seven touchdowns through eight games, and with the rest of the conference schedule ahead of him he should breeze past 1,000 yards and get get double-digit touchdowns.

Joe Pesansky - Throws TD in relief Pesansky went 6-for-11 for 72 yards and a touchdown against Missouri State on Wednesday.
Impact Keyone Jenkins started for FIU, as per usual, but Pesansky got some run. He was the started for Holy Cross last season, whereas Jenkins predates the current FIU staff at the school. While Pesansky hasn't been great in his appearances, there may be a quarterback battle brewing.

Keyone Jenkins - Throws two TDs, split snaps Jenkins went 15-for-24 for 147 yards and two touchdowns against Missouri State on Wednesday. He also lost a fumble.
Impact Notably, Joe Pesansky also played some significant time under center, and this was not a blowout and neither quarterback appears to have gotten injured. It may be as simple as things aren't going great for FIU, Jenkins was recruited by the previous staff, and Pesansky transferred in this offseason to play for the current staff.

Robert Czeremcha - Good to go Wednesday Czeremcha (undisclosed) is available for Wednesday's game at Missouri State.
Impact Czeremcha is set to play for the first time since Week 4, when he went 1-for-2 in field-goal tries against Delaware. However, he should remain a backup in kicking duties, so his upside will be almost non-existent as long as Noah Grant remains available.
OCTOBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Braiden Staten - Off injury report Staten (undisclosed) is good to go for FIU's clash with Missouri State on Wednesday night.
Impact Staten, who has three grabs for 26 yards this season, will be available for the first time since Week 6 against UConn. The backup tight end figures to remain a minor part of this passing game.

Missouri State vs. Florida International Prediction, Odds, Picks - October 29, 2025
Eric Nelson - Catches TD Nelson caught three passes for 39 yards and a score against KSU on Tuesday.
Impact This is the redshirt freshman's first touchdown. However, previous to this he had two catches for 21 yards against FBS opponents.
OCTOBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Perry - Tallies seven catches Perry caught seven passes for 75 yards against KSU on Tuesday.
Impact This is a high for catches on the season for the Hawaii transfer. It's also the third time in four games he's had at least 75 yards receiving.
OCTOBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Anthony Carrie - Finds the end zone Carrie ran eight times for 44 yards and a touchdown Tuesday against KSU.
Impact Carrie is a fine backup running back, as he's rushed for over 40 yards five times through seven games. Of course, he is a backup, so he hasn't gotten more than 11 touches in a game either.
OCTOBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kejon Owens - Breakthrough season continues Owens ran 20 times for 151 yards and a touchdown against KSU on Tuesday.
Impact Better late than never for the redshirt senior. This is Owens' third game of the season with over 150 rushing yards and a touchdown. Odds are he'll have his first 1,000-yard season, even if FIU is going nowhere as a team.
OCTOBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keyone Jenkins - Throws TD Jenkins went 22-for-37 for 296 yards and a touchdown against KSU on Tuesday.
Impact Not too shabby for a guy who was questionable with a back issue, but by no means a remarkable day. It's a concern that through seven games Jenkins has yet to throw multiple touchdowns in an outing. He's had four rushing scores, but that's still not good.
OCTOBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keyone Jenkins - Starting vs. Kennesaw State Jenkins (back) is starting against Kennesaw State on Tuesday, Kevin Barral of SI.com reports.
Impact Jenkins was listed as questionable in the availability report prior to the game, but he was spotted in warmups receiving snaps from the starting center, so he's going to start and should handle his regular workload. Through six appearances this season, Jenkins has completed 63.6 percent of his passes for 959 yards while posting a 3:4 TD:INT.
OCTOBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keyone Jenkins - Uncertain to face Kennesaw State Jenkins (back) is listed as questionable to play Tuesday against Kennesaw State.
Impact Jenkins will probably be a game-time call, meaning a decision on his status will be made closer to Tuesday's 7 p.m. ET kickoff. The junior quarterback has completed 63.6 percent of his passes for a 3:4 TD:INT while averaging a mere 5.8 yards per play in six appearances this season. If Jenkins is unable to go, then Joe Pesansky would step in as his replacement under center.
OCTOBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kyle McNeal - Good to go Tuesday night McNeal (undisclosed) is available for FIU on Tuesday against Kennesaw State.
Impact McNeal missed Week 8 against Western Kentucky, but the wideout is good to go for Tuesday night in Week 9. McNeal has 11 catches for 81 yards this season with a 20 yard rush as well. He should be a factor in the Panthers' passing game against the Owls.
OCTOBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Keyone Jenkins - Out vs. Kennesaw State Jenkins (back) is out for Tuesday's game against Kennesaw State.
Impact The loss of Jenkins is significant, but he wasn't having a very good season. Through six contests, he's completed 63.6 percent of his passes for a 3:4 TD:INT and a mere 5.8 yards per play. His absence means Joe Pesansky should start Tuesday.
OCTOBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Robert Czeremcha - Not playing Tuesday Czeremcha (undisclosed) is out for Tuesday's game against Kennesaw State.
Impact Czeremcha has played three games for FIU this season, going 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 12-for-12 on PATs. His absence means Noah Grant will handle the kicking duties exclusively in Tuesday's contest.

Justin Cayenne - Tending to leg injury Cayenne didn't play in Tuesday's game against Western Kentucky due to a leg injury, Kevin Barral of SI.com reports.
Impact The reason for Cayenne's absence Tuesday against WKU was previously unknown, but head coach Willie Simmons said Thursday that the tight end is dealing with a leg injury. With Dallas Payne (hand) out for the foreseeable future, Cayenne could see some more snaps moving forward. He's caught five passes in four appearances. His next chance to play will be Tuesday against Kennesaw State.
OCTOBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Braiden Staten - In concussion protocols Staten didn't play in Tuesday's game against Western Kentucky due to a head injury, and he remains in concussion protocol Thursday, Kevin Barral of SI.com reports.
Impact Staten's injury was previously unknown, but head coach Willie Simmons offered some clarity Thursday. The tight end remains in concussion protocols, and his next chance to play will come Tuesday against Kennesaw State. Staten has caught three passes in four appearances this season. He could see more action going forward due to the absence of Dallas Payne (hand).
OCTOBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Dallas Payne - Fractures hand Payne suffered a fractured hand and underwent surgery Thursday, Kevin Barral of SI.com reports.
Impact Payne transferred to FIU last offseason, and he caught 10 of his 15 targets for 76 yards and no touchdowns across six games. However, he fractured his hand and underwent surgery. A timeline for return is unknown, but he can be considered out indefinitely. Jackson Verdugo should see more snaps while Payne is sidelined.
