51 Former Ohio State Players On Active NFL Rosters For 2022 Season

Two others were either placed on the physically unable to perform list or season-ending injured reserve.
In this story:

NFL teams were required to trim their active roster down to 53 players on Tuesday, and several former Ohio State players were among the casualties.

That includes Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Binjimen Victor, Carolina Panthers wide receiver C.J. Saunders, Cincinnati Bengals punter Drue Chrisman, Dallas Cowboys long snapper Jake McQuaide, Detroit Lions defensive tackle Jason Cornell, Houston Texas cornerback Kendall Sheffield, Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Rashod Berry, Minnesota Vikings offensive guard Wyatt Davis, New York Giants defensive end Jalyn Holmes, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Austin Mack and Washington Commanders tight end Jake Hausmann.

Other teams had until noon on Wednesday to place a claim on those players, who are now able to be signed to any practice squad or active roster. Some will even return to the practice squad of the team that just cut them in the days ahead.

Two others former Buckeyes were placed on various league lists, including Seattle Seahawks linebacker Tyreke Smith (season-ending injured reserve) and Washington Commanders defensive end Chase Young (physically unable to perform).

Smith was dealing with injuries to both of his hips during the preseason, while Young is still recovering from a torn ACL suffered last season. He’ll be eligible to return after four games, though.

That said, there are still 51 former Ohio State players of 24 of the 32 NFL rosters, including a league-high six with the New Orleans Saints. The Cincinnati Bengals have four on their active roster, while the Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders have three apiece.
