Emeka Egbuka gave his opinion on a player that should be returning kicks for Ohio State. Griffin Strom of Eleven Warriors posted his comments on Twitter.

Egbuka believes that Ohio State LB Chip Trayanum should be getting some more looks as a returner. He highlighted how athletic he is by saying that he makes backflips look easy. Egbuka thinks that Trayanum might be fastest and most athletic player on the team.

Another reason why he made the indication is because of his getaway speed. Trayanum is dangerous in practice, says Egbuka.

“Once he hits the crease, no one on scout kick return can catch him,” said Egbuka. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he took the first one back.”

Trayanum has just 3 total tackles so far for Ohio State, with all of them being solo tackles. The Arizona State transfer has seen action in both games for Ohio State thus far. Ohio State may end up using against Toledo, especially if he starts to get some touches as a returner.
