Former FSU Running Back Jashaun Corbin signs undrafted free agent deal
Surprisingly, former Florida State running back Jashaun Corbin went undrafted this weekend, along with every other former Seminole except for defensive end Jermaine Johnson. Shortly following the conclusion of the draft, Corbin announced he was signing an undrafted free agent deal with the New York Giants.
Spending the first two years of college with Texas A&M, playing 14 games Corbin, totaled 1,025 all-purpose yards including 483 rushing yards. After suffering a serious injury, the talented young back found himself falling on the depth chart and entered the transfer portal. Corbin committed to Florida State on December 28, 2019. Coming in as a transfer, he and the coaching staff knew there was work to be done to get himself healthy again leading to an interesting transition for the Seminoles. Getting healthy swiftly, Corbin was ready to play in the upcoming 2020 season.
