Wyatt Davis Woke Up “Really Thankful” to Play, Ohio State Rushing Issues, Ryan Day “Very Proud” of Performance

Just a few months ago, Wyatt Davis had to wonder whether this moment would ever come.

In fact, on Sept. 11 he gave up all hope by announcing his decision to opt out of Ohio State's football season in order to spend the fall and winter preparing for April's 2021 NFL Draft. The momentum, however, suddenly shifted. Days later, the Big Ten reinstated a fall slate and Davis subsequently decided to suit up for the Buckeyes once more.

On Saturday, Davis took the field for what most assume will be his final season opener, helping Ohio State pull off a 52-17 victory against Nebraska at Ohio Stadium.
