With Luke Farrell, Rashod Berry and Jeremy Ruckert all vying for playing time at the tight end position, Ohio State is looking for more ways to get two or even three of them on the field simultaneously.
One way the Buckeyes could do that is by spreading Ruckert out and playing him as an H receiver.
K.J. Hill is the Buckeyes’ starting H-back/slot receiver, while C.J. Saunders and Jaelen Gill are also competing for playing time at that spot. But with Parris Campbell now set to begin his career in the NFL, as well as Terry McLaurin and Johnnie Dixon, there could be more opportunities for Ohio State’s tight ends – particularly Ruckert – to line up as receivers.
