Antonio CromartieThe son will follow in his father’s footsteps and play defensive back at Florida State. And Dad says: TMZ Sports He couldn’t be happier about it!!
Antonio Cromartie Jr. — The teenager plays high school ball at Carrollton HS in Georgia — committed to the Seminoles earlier this month. When we sat down with Sr. this week, the former NFL superstar said it all felt “surreal.” “
Cromartie Sr., who played at FSU in 2003 and 2004, said the Florida State offer came from the Noles’ coaching staff on Christmas Day. And he said it was “better than any gift I could give” to his son.
A few days later, the duo traveled to Tallahassee and Cromartie Jr. committed to the program.
“I found out about it during Coach Surtain’s meeting.”
2025 DB Antonio Cromartie Jr. is a Nole! He’s fast, has a high football IQ, and has a knack for forcing turnovers.

Jr. was as thrilled as his dad with the decision. “I always dreamed of playing for Florida State as a kid, and now I’m thankful it’s here,” he explained.

As a member of the Class of 2025, Cromartie Jr. will be heading to campus in just a few months. And Sr. said he will begin learning how to prepare for college games in earnest over the next few weeks.
Cromartie Sr. said he would watch tape and train hard. Hopefully Jr. can play faster as a freshman.
As for what the Seminoles can expect from young Cromartie when he eventually puts on the FSU helmet and pads… he said it’s simple. They get a ball hawk.
Like father, like son!
