TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher says receiving leader Rashad Greene is expected to play against Syracuse on Saturday.

Fisher updated Greene's health after practice Thursday. The senior wideout suffered a concussion during last week in a 43-3 victory over Wake Forest, but fully participated in practice Thursday and was scheduled to undergo final testing afterward.

Fisher says, ''Now, I'm not saying 100 percent until they double check him after practice and all his visuals, but he was the old Rashad.''

Greene leads the team with 38 receptions, 576 yards and three touchdowns. He is four catches away from breaking the school career receptions record and 558 yards from breaking the career yardage mark. Greene needs seven touchdowns to break the school's career receiving touchdowns record.
