The preseason is over and these Buckeyes will get their chance to compete in 2015.
Nine former Ohio State players saw the chopping block ahead of the regular season. Three were released before the first deadline, with an additional eleven players let go in the last round of cuts. Should these players clear waivers and get overlooked by other teams, the younger players could still land on a team's practice squad.
This might be a good option for receiver Evan Spencer who was released by Washington. He was plagued with several injuries during the preseason, culminating in missing a game due to concussion protocol.
