The Buckeyes-turned-rookies each have their new digits.
All 10 former Ohio State players who were selected in the 2020 NFL draft have received their jersey numbers, with two of them rocking the same ones they wore in college – for now.
Two of the Detroit Lions draft picks, Jeff Okudah (third overall) and Jonah Jackson (75th overall) still have the same numbers they wore as Buckeyes, wearing No. 1 and No. 73, respectively. The caveat, though, is Okudah will only wear his single digit in the preseason. The NFL has strict jersey number rules, meaning the first-round cornerback will have to pick a number between 20 and 49.
