(AP) \u2014 Florida State receiver Duce Robinson, the team&#8217;s leading receiver, will have season-ending knee surgery, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the severity of Robinson&#8217;s injury has not been disclosed publicly. ESPN first reported the surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Robinson finishes his senior season with 24 receptions for 438 yards and four touchdowns. He was coming off a 1,000-yard season as a junior in 2025, earning All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors.<\/p>\n<p>The 6-foot-6 Robinson returned to Florida State to try to help the team rebound from a 5-7 season. But the former USC transfer and new quarterback Ashton Daniels struggled to create the same chemistry Robinson and quarterback Tommy Castellanos found a year ago.<\/p>\n<p>Robinson&#8217;s surgery decision came two days after the Seminoles (3-5, 1-4 ACC) fired coach <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/florida-state-norvell-fired-9c61975b6e9a8bc33c0f3455753d7333\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mike Norvell.<\/a> Rick Stockstill, who previously served as the director of scouting for FSU&#8217;s offense, was named interim head coach.<\/p>\n<p>The Seminoles will now be without two of their best offensive players when they travel to Boston College (4-4, 2-3) for a game Saturday. Florida State\u2019s top two running backs, Ousmane Kromah and Samuel Singleton Jr., also are out with injuries. Kromah is out for the season, and Singleton is out indefinitely.<\/p>\n<p>AP Sports Writer Mark Long contributed to this report.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/newsletters\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sign up for Top 25 poll alerts here<\/a>, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/ap-top-25-college-football-poll\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Top 25 here<\/a> and see AP\u2019s full <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/college-football\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">college football coverage here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n                Success!
