Adolphus Washington receives the signal from the sideline and instantly becomes aware of the fact he is going to have his hands full on the very next play. The Ohio State coaching staff has signaled for its ‘Rushmen’ package and Washington knows he has to move positions from his normal three-technique spot on the defensive line to noseguard.
Sam Hubbard comes into the game to replace the starting noseguard. Joey Bosa moves from his normal defensive end position to the three-technique and, as a result, Washington slides down to noseguard — the position he played much of last year alongside Michael Bennett.
