Set to play vs. Cavaliers Pittman (knee) isn't listed on Florida State's final injury report ahead of a Friday night showdown with Virginia, per Dustin Lewis of Sports Illustrated.

Impact Pittman hasn't played since the opener, when he caught two of his three targets for 18 yards in the win over Alabama. The tight end is set to return in Week 5 for the Seminoles' first real test since they shocked the college football world in Week 1. He'll take over the top tight end spot, which was being held down by a committee featuring Amaree Williams, Markeston Douglass and Landen Thomas.

Officially listed as probable Pittman (knee) is probable to play Friday against Virginia.

Impact Pittman has been dealing with a knee problem, but the tight end could be available for the ACC opener this Friday based on how good he's looked in practice in recent days. Pittman, the top option at TE for the Seminoles, hasn't played since Week 1.

Likely available Week 5 Pittman (knee) is likely available for Friday's game at Virginia, Brendan Sonnone of 247Sports reports.

Impact It looks like for the first time since Week 1, Florida State will have its top option at tight end available. With a conference game scheduled between FSU and Virginia, perhaps the ACC availability report will clear his status. In Week 1, Pittman logged two receptions (on three targets) for 18 yards.

Listed on depth chart Pittman (knee) is listed on Florida State's depth chart ahead of Week 5 versus Virginia, per 247Sports.com.

Impact This could be significant for Florida State, as Pittman wasn't included on the Seminoles' depth chart as recently as a week ago ahead of the Kent State game. This could be an early-week indicator that Pittman could return to the field for the first time since Week 1 against Alabama, when he caught two passes for 18 yards. The return of the starting tight end would be a big boost to a Florida State offense that's already humming through a quarter of the season.

Still not part of games Pittman (knee) did not play during the Seminoles' 66-10 win Saturday against Kent.

Impact Considering that the Seminoles' depth chart did not include Pittman, him recently logging another DNP is unsurprising. Prior to October, their updated schedule features one more game, Friday at Virginia.

Not part of depth chart Pittman (knee) is not part of the Seminoles' depth chart for their upcoming game Saturday against Kent.

Impact Pittman not part of the Seminoles' depth chart likely indicates that their upcoming game omits him. At tight end, they include Amaree Williams, Markeston Douglas and Landen Thomas. Though not out, Pittman's injury status is downgraded to doubtful.

Spotted with wrap on left knee Pittman was spotted with a wrap on his left knee ahead of Saturday's game versus Texas A&M-Commerce, Dustin Lewis of Sports Illustrated reports.

Impact Pittman was already ruled out for the contest, but now the spot on the body that's nagging him has been revealed. He'll have a bye week ahead to rest up with hopes of returning to action against Kent State on Sept. 20.

Out Week 2, maybe longer Pittman (undisclosed) will miss Florida State's clash with East Texas A&M on Saturday, per Dustin Lewis of Nole Gameday.

Impact Pittman caught just two passes for 18 yards in Florida State's Week 1 win over Alabama. The tight end reportedly pushed through an injury he dealt with in the preseason to suit up against the Crimson Tide, but now it's caught up with him and he'll need to sit out for at least Week 2 and potentially longer. "It'll be a short period of time but he'll be out this week," head coach Mike Norvell said.

Could log significant role again Pittman could log a significant role during Florida State's 2025 season, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact According to Nakos, Florida State's short-yardage situations should benefit Pittman, who FSU's starting quarterback Tommy Castellanos will likely target during their 2025 games. The tight end clearly has proven success in that regard, with his 2024 season including 13 yards per reception, 32 for 416 yards and two touchdowns.

Headed to Tallahassee Pittman will transfer to Florida State, Brendan Sonnone of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Pittman had an excellent season in his sophomore year with Central Florida, reeling in 32 catches for 416 yards and two touchdowns. The Florida native will stay inside the state and play for the Seminoles, where he should compete for a starting role immediately.

Will enter transfer portal Pittman has decided to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Pittman will leave UCF after playing two seasons seeking a fresh start at a new program. The sophomore tight end should be a popular portal target after totaling 32 receptions for 416 yards and two touchdowns across 11 outings this season.

DECEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hauls in two touchdowns Pittman hauled in 5 of 6 targets for 80 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 56-12 win versus Arizona.

Impact Most of Pittman's games were relatively quiet coming into Saturday's game, but he revived with two touchdowns and the highest yardage total of his college career. He now has a chance to match the numbers from his breakout freshman campaign with Dylan Rizk throwing the ball.
