Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate and Brandon Inniss. Those are the three receivers front of mind for every Ohio State fan entering 2025.
Smith and Tate return as star Buckeye starters while Inniss, a composite top-40 prospect entering his third year, feels destined to round out Ohio State’s starting rotation after some modest production in 2024. But there’s another wideout entering his third year eager to contribute, even if it’s in relief of that trio.
Rising redshirt sophomore Bryson Rodgers climbed the Buckeyes’ wide receiver depth chart to its fifth position in 2024, one spot behind Inniss.
