Florida State's Derwin James vows to come back stronger from meniscus tear
Derwin James was injured making a tackle during Florida State's 52-8 win over Charleston Southern.Derwin James said he will do whatever it takes to come back stronger for No. 2 Florida State after suffering a meniscus tear in his left knee Saturday.
In a video clip released by Showtime promoting its series “A Season With Florida State Football,” the Seminoles’ star safety is seen getting an MRI and speaking with the Florida State coaches and team doctor.
The original concern was the sophomore James tore his ACL, but on the video a doctor tells coach Jimbo Fisher that James has a “big lateral meniscus tear.”
“You’re kidding me,” Fisher responded.
