Senior defensive back Kevin Knowles II is among the semifinalists for the Jason Witten Man of the Year Award. Now in its eighth season, the Witten Award is the first to primarily focus on a player’s leadership, both on and off the field.

A Hollywood, Fla., native, Knowles has participated in events with Hope to Dream, reading at W.T. Moore Elementary School, Boys Town, the FSU President’s Council for First Generation students, serves on the LYFE Board and SAAC through Florida State Athletics and narrated an event with the Black Student Union.

On the field, Knowles has started each of the past four seasons, including all four games in 2024. He was part of a Florida State defensive secondary that led the country in 2023 by allowing just 46.9 percent completions.

Twenty semifinalists will be announced on October 22. Three finalists will be named for the award on Monday, December 16. The winner will be announced at the award ceremony at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on February 12, 2025.
