With Sean Maguire out with a foot injury, Florida State is now relying on redshirt freshman Deondre Francois for their season opener against Ole Miss. Sophomore J.J. Cosentino will likely be his backup. Henry was unlikely to play, but with the injury issues that Florida State has faced at the position recently, it definitely doesn't help to potentially lose some depth at the start of the season.
