Ohio State fans’ exposure to running back Trey Sermon is limited. Many remember a catch and run in the ‘Shoe from a few years ago when he played for Oklahoma, but beyond that, he dealt with injuries and a backup role with the Sooners.
He’s healthy now though, and he flashed some of that speed and explosiveness during a play in preseason camp that the Ohio State Football Twitter account shared Saturday.
For background purposes, Sermon is a lean 6-foot, 1-inch, and 215 pounds. He has an upright running style with a long gate and catches the ball well out of the backfield. He’s got some wiggle to him, but gets up to full speed in a straight-line quickly.
To get a look at how he runs with the ball, just click on the below tweet shared by Ohio State.
Get ready for a lot more of this in 2020 đź‘€ @treyera#GoBuckeyes pic.twitter.com/y0xxX553ri

We can’t wait to see more of this in the fall as Sermon gets behind that talented offensive line and picks out his holes.
