FSU QB McKenzie Milton ‘fully cleared’ to participate in spring football camp

Florida State coach Mike Norvell said former UCF quarterback McKenzie Milton has been “fully cleared” to participate when the Seminoles open spring football camp Tuesday.

Milton, who transferred to FSU in December after five seasons with the Knights, spent nearly two years recovering from a horrific knee injury he suffered during the Knights’ 2018 regular-season finale against USF at Raymond James Stadium.

“He’s been fully cleared,” Norvell said Friday. “He looks great and I’m excited for what he’s going to be able to do and get him back acclimated to the true speed of the game.”

Milton went through multiple surgeries for his knee and one doctor told him 50% of people who suffer the same injury usually have the leg amputated because the artery is too damaged or severed and it’s too late to get the blood flow back to the leg.
