According to Ohio State, the players listed as unavailable “may be unavailable because of injury, rehabilitation because of an injury or illness.”
One other starter was on the list: linebacker Tuf Borland, the team’s second-leading tackler. Josh Proctor, who splits time at safety, is also unavailable.
Also out are: running back Marcus Crowley; wide receivers Kamryn Babb, Mookie Cooper, Jaylen Harris and Gee Scott; cornerback Cam Brown; safety Kourt Williams; defensive backs Alec Taylor and Cam Kittle; defensive linemen Jacolbe Cowan, Aaron Cox, Tyler Friday and Noah Potter; tight ends Patrick Gurd and Joe Royer; quarterback Jagger Laroe; longsnapper Roen McCullough.
Ohio State did not play last weekend at Illinois because of rising COVID-19 cases within the program. It returned to practice on Tuesday and announced Friday it would be able to play Michigan State.
