See which Ohio State football players earned All-CFP honors: Buckeye Breakfast
COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Associated Press released its All-College Football Playoff team this week, and unsurprisingly, Ohio State was heavily featured.
The champs had 11 players honored, highlighted by quarterback Will Howard and linebacker Cody Simon — the offensive and defensive most valuable players in the title game vs. Notre Dame.
Freshman receiver Jeremiah Smith was also recognized after collecting 19 receptions for 381 yards and five touchdowns across four postseason wins.
Of the 11 players honored, four were newcomers with former Ole Miss transfer Quinshon Judkins and former Alabama transfer Caleb Downs joining Smith and Howard.
Here is the list of honorees:
- Will Howard, quarterback
- TreVeyon Henderson, running back
- Quinshon Judkins, running back
- Jeremiah Smith, wide receiver
- Carson Hinzman, offensive line
- Donovan Jackson, offensive line
- Jack Sawyer, defensive line
- J.T. Tuimoloau, defensive line
- Cody Simon, linebacker
- Sonny Styles, linebacker
- Caleb Downs, defensive back
Former Ohio State players find new homes
Former Ohio State cornerback Calvin Simpson-Hunt has signed with Baylor.
He spent two seasons with the Buckeyes after flipping from Texas Tech and signing with Ohio State’s 2023 recruiting class.
Simpson-Hunt primarily played on special teams before transferring. He remained with the program throughout its College Football Playoff run before entering the portal on Tuesday.
Offensive lineman George Fitzpatrick, who entered the portal on Jan. 4 but also stayed through the CFP, has signed with Kansas State.
The Wildcats also added former OSU linebacker Gabe Powers out of the portal this offseason.
