Donovan Jackson Didn’t Want to Sit Out Ohio State’s First Two Games with Hamstring Injury, But Knows It Was For His Own Good

Donovan Jackson didn’t like being told he couldn’t play in Ohio State’s first two games of the year, but he knew that decision was made for his own good.

The Ohio State left guard confirmed Wednesday that he was sidelined by a hamstring injury, as was initially reported during FOX’s broadcast of last weekend’s game against Marshall, that he suffered during preseason camp.

“You overstride a little bit one way and then your hamstring goes another way and that's kind of what happened to me,” Jackson said.

As soon as Jackson suffered the injury, he started thinking about how he could get back on the field as quickly as possible.
