The Ohio State football team has released its availability report for its contest against the Akron Zips and it appears that the Buckeyes will be missing a starter on both sides of the football. On the offensive side of the ball, OSU will be missing Donovan Jackson and on the defensive side of the ball, Cody Simon will be absent from the season opener.
Losing Jackson is a huge bummer because this offensive line needs to gel and be a cohesive unit before the Bucks play an opponent on the same talent level as them. The Simon injury is also upsetting due to his injury history but should provide a unique opportunity for the rest of the backer depth. Here is the rest of the availability report:
Out
- OL Devontae Armstrong
- S Jayden Bonsu
- DL Cade Casto
- RB TC Caffey
- OG Donovan Jackson
- LB Cody Simon
- WR Reis Stocksdale
