Harry Miller, a former Ohio State offensive lineman who retired from football because of mental health struggles, is expected to attend the State of the Union address on Tuesday night.

The White House invited Harry Miller, and he’s expected to be part of a select group from across the country that will sit in First Lady Jill Biden’s viewing box for the president’s speech, The Columbus Dispatch reported.

In a lengthy social media post, Miller shared that he had intentions to take his own life prior to the 2021 season, and told coach Ryan Day about them.
