We project how Ohio State’s depth chart could stack up at every position with only nine days to go until the Buckeyes’ season opener at Indiana.
Fleming remains in line to be Ohio State’s third starting wide receiver alongside the superstar duo of Harrison and Egbuka, but Tate’s chances of stealing snaps and potentially even a starting spot away from Fleming appear to be growing by the week as he continues to draw high praise from his coaches and teammates. At a minimum, Tate seems to have locked up a spot on the two-deep and appears poised to be the next man up behind the starters on the outside.
Johnson is also expected to factor into the wide receiver rotation as a backup slot receiver with the versatility to also line up outside and in the backfield. Ballard should round out the two-deep, but whether leads to more frequent playing time in his third year remains uncertain. Rogers and Inniss don’t appear as likely to play regularly in year one as Tate, but both have made strong early impressions to position themselves well for the future. Antwi still faces an uphill climb to substantial playing time in a loaded receiver room, but he appears to be closer to earning a role than fellow second-year receiver Kyion Grayes.
Jelani Thurman is also a candidate to see some playing time after making an immediate impression in his first offseason as a Buckeye, but Ohio State might prefer to avoid relying on him too heavily as a true freshman, particularly in blocking situations.Simmons has made a big impression on Ohio State’s coaching staff in preseason camp with his athleticism and improvement, putting him in position to play the premier position on Ohio State’s offensive line.
