Cade Stover Will Return to Ohio State for the 2023 Season

Cade Stover had a tough decision to make.

With national outlets projecting him to go somewhere between the second and fourth rounds in this year's upcoming NFL draft, Stover had to weigh whether or not another year at Ohio State could help boost his draft stock.

Ultimately, he decided the answer was yes, as the 6-foot-4, 255-pound Mansfield, Ohio, product decided to return to Ohio State for another season on Monday, extending his Buckeyes career.

Dating back to the spring, Stover wasn't even practicing at tight end, as he played the Buckeyes' final game of 2021 at linebacker and went into spring practice of 2022 thinking he had found a permanent home.
