Former Troy Offensive Tackle Derrick Graham Reportedly Visiting Ohio State

Ohio State is reportedly hosting former Troy offensive tackle Derrick Graham on an official visit today according to On3.

Graham (6-4, 315) has two years of eligibility remaining after four years at Troy, starting as a true freshman in 2020, redshirting in 2021 and playing in 26 games with the Trojans over the past two seasons, serving as the left tackle this season.

After the Buckeyes had major offensive line problems in the Cotton Bowl, Ohio State is likely looking to add someone who would be able to contribute immediately next season, especially with Matt Jones out of eligibility and Donovan Jackson possibly heading to the NFL, which would leave both starting tackle positions wide open for the 2024 season.

In the Cotton Bowl Missouri had four sacks, 10 tackles for a loss and eight quarterback hurries, forcing two fumbles. The offense had no time to wait for plays to develop almost the entire game, and it was obvious that changes would need to be made.

Other schools that are interested in Graham are Texas A&M, Pittsburgh and Missouri.
