With the 2018 NFL Draft and free agent signings in the rear-view mirror, the Ohio State Football Twitter account put out a video detailing just how many of the 2014 National Champion Buckeyes have gotten a shot in the NFL. The number is pretty staggering.
The more amazing thing is that the number is going to grow even larger after the 2018 season.
The Buckeyes currently have seven fifth-year seniors who were on that 2014 team.
Receivers Parris Campbell, Johnnie Dixon, and Terry McLaurin were just true freshmen.
Offensive linemen Demetrius Knox and Brady Taylor were there as well, redshirting in preparation for a future role.
Two players who saw action that year as true freshmen were linebacker Dante Booker and kicker Sean Nuernberger. Both redshirted later on down the road, but could see their way to the next level in the spring of 2019.
Anway, it’s pretty impressive and you should definitely check out how Ohio State has decided to send this message, which is designed to impress recruits, but should impress anybody who watches it.
4️⃣8️⃣ players from the 2014 National Champion Ohio State Buckeyes have now gotten their shot at the @NFL.
