Report: FSU's Manuel injured ankle Wednesday

Florida State quarterback EJ Manuel reportedly injured his ankle Wednesday during a two-minute drill in practice and left the locker room in a walking boot.

He was held out of Thursday's team scrimmage for precautionary reasons, according to the school.

The fifth-year senior, who played at least part of the Champs Sports Bowl with a broken leg, has a history of injuries. He also missed three games last season with a separated left shoulder.

Manuel is considered by many the make-or-break talent in Tallahassee, where ACC championship hopes remain high based largely on a very talented defense.
