Ohio State quarterback Devin Brown posts cryptic photo on social media

How are you reading into this?

Ohio State football has had more than 10 players enter the transfer portal since the window opened on Monday, one of them being starting quarterback Kyle McCord.

The expectation was the Buckeyes would play [autotag]Devin Brown[/autotag] and true freshman Lincoln Kienholz in the Cotton Bowl. Both backups received playing time during the regular season. It seemed the two would battle during bowl prep and have the competition continue through the spring and fall.

After a recent Brown post on social media, you have to wonder if that’ll end up being the case. The second-year player posted a photo of burning ships, which left many wondering what that message meant. Some opined that it was a nod to Vikings burning their ships so they had no option but to stay. Others saw it as a doomsday scenario of Brown also looking to enter the transfer portal.

It’s always hard to read into these kind of posts, but history buffs would rather believe this means Brown is all in on sticking with the program.
