Ohio State football players invited to the NFL Scouting Combine over past ten years
The annual 2022 NFL Scouting Combine is occurring this week and it’ll have seven total Ohio State players taking part in all the poking, prodding, and talking. Almost every year has a slew of former Buckeyes involved in all the shenanigans and we thought it’d be fun to reflect on the last ten years.
All told, 78 Ohio State players have been invited to Indianapolis with some years having more than others. Wide receivers, defensive backs, and defensive linemen lead the way, but as you’ll see, almost every position group is represented from the period 2013 to 2022.
You can catch all the festivities by taking a look at the overall schedule for position groups, but first things first, here’s a look at all 78 Ohio State football players that have appeared in Indy broken down by year over the last ten cycles.
