Ryan Day hints at plans for loaded WR room in 2022
Published:
Ryan Day has helped Ohio State slowly become known for producing NFL-ready talent at WR. Day recently gave fans an idea of how the WR room is going to be run this fall per Dan Hope of Eleven Warriors.
It was no secret that Ohio State loved getting the ball to Chris Olave and Garret Wilson last season. When the 2 wideouts got going, it was a very difficult attack to stop along with TreVeyon Henderson in the backfield. However, the Buckeyes may be using more outside WRs this year according to Day.
Ryan Day indicates Ohio State’s outside wide receivers will rotate more this year than they did last year, when Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson played the vast majority of snaps.
Marvin Harrison Jr. and Julian Fleming were the first-team outside receivers today in practice.

Another wideout that may be getting a lot of touches could be 2nd-year WR Emeka Egbuka. Day has loved his work ethic so far, and believes he can have a great season if he keeps up the good work.
“His work ethic’s off the charts,” said Day. “His toughness is off the charts. His ball skills are really good. If he keeps stacking days, I think he’s going to have a really good year.”
