Ohio State Updates Roster For 2022 Season

The upcoming football season is quickly approaching, which means it is time for some updated jersey numbers at Ohio State. The Buckeyes have handed out numbers for their summer enrollees, of which 10 arrived in recent months and will look to get involved in fall camp:

No. Position Player
No. 5 RB Dallan Hayden
No. 13 WR Kaleb Brown
No. 14 WR Kojo Antwi
No. 20 S Sonny Styles
No. 23 DE Omari Abor
No. 67 OL Tegra Tshabola
No. 72 OL Avery Henry
No. 75 OL Carson Hinzman
No. 93 DT Hero Kanu
No. 97 DE Kenyatta Jackson

Ohio State’s early enrollees arrived on campus last winter and have already received their jersey numbers, including linebacker C.J. Hicks (No. 11), wide receiver Caleb Burton (No. 12), quarterback Devin Brown (No. 15), wide receiver Kyion Grayes (No. 17), cornerback Jyaire Brown (No. 18), cornerback Ryan Turner (No. 29, previously No. 24), linebacker Gabe Powers (No. 36), safety Kye Stokes (No. 37), offensive lineman George Fitzpatrick (No. 68), tight end Bennett Christian (No. 85) and defensive end Caden Curry (No. 92).

Several returning members of Ohio State’s roster also received updated numbers:

Player Position Old Number New Number
Jakailin Johnson CB No. 32 No. 4
Denzel Burke CB No. 29 No. 5
Jordan Hancock CB No. 13 No. 7
Cameron Martinez SAF No. 10 No. 13
Mitchell Melton DE No. 20 No. 17

One notable exclusion from Ohio State’s roster is kicker Parker Lewis, who announced his transfer to the Buckeyes this offseason, though he will presumably be added at some point as fall camp approaches in August.
