A Look At Jersey Numbers For Ohio State’s Rookies In The NFL
This year’s NFL Draft draft once again acted as an infomercial for the Ohio State football program, which – alongside Alabama – led the country with 10 players selected.
The Buckeyes also had five players ink free agent deals at the draft’s conclusion, giving them 15 totals players that will now look to make a name for themselves in the NFL.
It will be easy to recognize several of those players on their new teams, as they’ll continue to wear the same number they wore with the Buckeyes. But with the NFL being a little more stringent with jersey numbers than the college game or established players already rocking those digits, some players be donning new numbers this fall.
