Mike Tomlin’s Son Poured Salt In Florida State’s Wound With Savage Taunt After Boneheaded Play

Florida State is in shambles after losing its second-straight college football game of the season on Monday night and Mike Tomlin’s son Dino poured salt in the would. The sixth-year senior at Boston College mocked the Seminoles fans after a boneheaded play during the third quarter.

It was a hilarious sequence of events that did not go over well with the home crowd.

Tomlin, whose father is the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, committed to Maryland out of high school as a three-star recruit. He transferred north to play for the Eagles prior to his redshirt junior season in 2022 and has been there ever since.

Mike Tomlin’s son, Dino Tomlin, is a savage.

Although the 6-foot-0 pass-catcher only made four starts during the last two seasons, Tomlin finished third on the team with 24 catches for 312 yards in 2023. This is his final year of eligibility.

Boston College did not throw Tomlin’s way at any point on Monday. Quarterback Thomas Castellanos only completed 10 passes in total. None of them were his direction.

Nevertheless, Dino Tomlin still made an impact — even though it might’ve been for the wrong reason.

The Eagles punted on 4th-and-3 at their own 47-yard-line with seven minutes and 17 seconds left in the third quarter. They were up 21-6 at the time.

Florida State’s kick returner called for a fair catch. Tomlin did not adhere to the wave. He came flying downfield like a heat-seeking missile and blew up the Seminoles’ return man. The play was penalized for kick catch interference.

A crowd of 79,000 fans at Doak Campbell Stadium immediately started to jeer. Tomlin, who had just been flagged for 15 crucial yards, turned to the stands and mocked them for crying.
