Ohio State will be without the services of H-back and leading receiver Parris Campbell against Iowa, according to a report.
Friday night, James Grega Jr. of Eleven Warriors tweeted that Campbell did not make the trip to Iowa City and will not be available against the Hawkeyes. Campbell left the game against Penn State last week after being “dinged up on a kickoff return” according to head coach Urban Meyer.

Campbell has not seen much time on the field over the last few weeks, forcing Ohio State to depend on other playmakers like receivers K.J. Hill and Johnnie Dixon.
Campbell is still the leading receiver for the Buckeyes, hauling in 29 catches for 410 yards and two touchdowns, but he’s been extremely limited in the last two games. Against Nebraska and Penn State, the H-back has caught just three passes for 11 yards.
Ohio State and Iowa are scheduled to kickoff at 3:30 p.m. ET.
