Florida State football, recruiting news: Josh Sweat is ready to take the next step

Football:

Josh Sweat is looking to pounce on his terrific finish to his sophomore season and the further removed he gets from that knee injury the better he looks. Sweat checks in at No. 43 on SportsIllustrated’s top 100 players list.

Florida State’s defensive line is so loaded that it’s difficult to project excellence from any one player without worrying about whether someone else will outshine him with a breakout season. That shouldn’t be an issue with Sweat, though. The Seminoles will be counting on him to get after the quarterback to make up for the production void created by first-team All-ACC end DeMarcus Walker’s departure this off-season. Sweat wreaked havoc in opponents’ backfields down the stretch of 2016, notching 18 tackles and 4.5 sacks over Florida State’s final three games. Now he just needs to prove he can do it over an entire campaign.
