At least two tight ends will play substantial roles in Ohio State’s offense this season, according to Ryan Day.
Ohio State hasn’t specified whether fifth-year senior Gee Scott Jr. or Ohio transfer Will Kacmarek will be its starting tight end this season, but they could end up platooning as the Buckeyes’ top two tight ends anyway. While Cade Stover played the vast majority of tight end snaps in Ohio State’s base offense over the past two seasons, Ohio State would ideally prefer to have multiple tight ends share the load, while there will also be plenty of situations where multiple tight ends will be on the field together.
