An Ohio State defensive lineman will miss a second straight game this season according to head coach Urban Meyer.

During his Monday press conference, Meyer said that sophomore defensive lineman Dre’Mont Jones — who missed Saturday’s game against Rutgers with a leg injury — will not be available this weekend against Maryland.

Jones has recorded seven tackles in three games this season, including three stops for loss and has also blocked a kick. He had a tremendous year in 2016, recording 52 tackles and four tackles for loss.

His best performance this season came in Week 2 against Oklahoma, racking up four total tackles and a stop for loss.
