The 2025 NFL preseason, after kicking off with last week’s Hall of Fame game, is set to officially get underway this Thursday as teams hit the field to satisfy the thirst of football fans with something that moderately resembles an actual game.
Florida State currently has 35 players on NFL rosters, the latest of which being Lawrance Toafili who was signed by the New York Jets
on July 29.Toafili appeared in five seasons for the Seminoles, across 55 games total. In them, he racked up a total of 1,895
rushing yards and 15 touchdowns. In 2023, he was the ACC Championship game MVP after he rushed for a career-high 118 yards versus No. 14 Louisville.
After his final season with the Seminoles, he went undrafted, but Toafili tried out at the New York Jets’ minicamp, and it appears his efforts have paid off. He will reunite with 2025 second-round pick Azareye’h Thomas as well as three other former Seminoles.
Some of the recent off-season roster moves that have been made involving Florida State alumni in the NFL:
- Quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, who signed with the Los Angeles Chargers in free agency, made an appearance in the Hall of Fame game vs. the Detroit Lions
- Defensive back Kevin Knowles II was released on May 3 by the Kansas City Chiefs after signing with them as an UDFA
- Defensive back Fentrell Cypress II was released on July 27 by the Washington Commanders after joining them as an UDFA
