Jayvan Boggs breaks the rock after career day in FSU win
After Florida State's win over Central Arkansas, wide receiver Jayvan Boggs was given the honor of breaking the rock after his career day.
Florida State University's football team has a post-game ritual called "Breaking the Rock," initiated by head coach Mike Norvell and strength and conditioning coach Josh Storms. This tradition involves all players and coaches signing a rock adorned with the opposing team's logo; after a win, one Seminole is honored with breaking it.
On Saturday, sophomore wide receiver Jayvan Boggs received this distinction following a career-defining performance. Boggs accumulated an impressive 122 yards on six receptions, including a touchdown, marking his most productive outing since gaining 69 yards against Alabama earlier in the season. This milestone follows a freshman year when he was sidelined with injuries for four games.
The rock-breaking symbolizes the dedication and unity required to achieve goals, encapsulating the Seminoles' teamwork. In FSU's debut win over New Mexico State Aggies, running back Sam Singleton Jr. was the previous rock breaker. With consecutive strong performances, there is optimism that Boggs' trajectory will continue to ascend.
The phrase "Career day for Jayvan = Rock Break #NoleFamily" was shared on Twitter (@FSUFootball) on September 26, 2026.
