The wide receiver room in Columbus is arguably the best there is, and the numbers prove it

Ohio State wide receiver Garrett Wilson joined Jaxon Smith-Njigba with over 1,000 yards on the 2021 season during today’s game with Michigan.

Before the 2021 season, there have been five OSU receivers that have broken the 1,000-yard mark in a single season, those bing David Boston (1,435 in 1998), Terry Glenn (1,411 in 1995), Cris Carter (1,127 in 1986), Michael Jenkins (1,076 in 2002) and Parris Campbell (1,063 in 2018).

But the Buckeyes may not be done adding to the list, as senior Chris Olave is also on pace to top the mark, having entered Saturday’s game with 848 yards during the season.
