Florida State defensive end Xavier Peters will transfer

After countless rumors, a handful of back-and-forths, and endless speculation over the last several months, we’ve finally found our answer when it comes to former four-star prospect and current Florida State defensive end Xavier Peters.

The former Kentucky commitment is no longer a Seminole and will be transferring from the school.

In an interview with Steve Wiltfong of 247 Sports, Peters said that he has put his name in the transfer portal – and keeping it there – so he can move closer to home to be with his one-year old son.

“I just want to be home to support him,” Peters said.
