Ohio State football kicks off against the Northwestern Wildcats for a Noon ET matchup at Wrigley Field in Chicago, Illinois. The Buckeyes are projected to win by more than four touchdowns so it would not be surprising to see some guys miss time. OSU defensive lineman, Tyleik Williams has missed some time this season with an injury, but it looks like he is ready to rock and roll for this week. But we’ll see what that means.
Two depth pieces look like they will miss time today in Mitchell Melton and Aaron Scott Jr., which is a shame due to the expected blowout leading to a potential clearing of the depth. Despite those two missing time, it is always good news that not many additional starters are missing time. Obviously, starting offensive tackle, Josh Simmons, is out for the season and has been since earlier in the season. The rest of the injury report is as follows:
Out
RB TC Caffey
TE Will Kacmarek
DE Mitchell Melton
OT Zen Michalski
TE Jace Middleton
CB Aaron Scott Jr.
OT Josh Simmons
CB Calvin Simpson-Hunt
WR Reis Stocksdale
Ryan Day said tonight that Tyleik Williams is “ready to go. He’s full go.”
