Across his career, the Cleveland, Ohio, native has recorded 186 tackles, 76 assists, 2.5 sacks and 2 interceptions. His return is sure to be a positive factor for the Buckeyes’ defense.
While many teams have struggled to keep their rosters in tact due to the transfer portal, Ohio State has been able to hold on to a lot of key players. CJ Stroud is likely bound for the draft, but Ohio State will bring back Marvin Harrison Jr, Miyan Williams, TreVeyon Henderson and multiple other offensive pieces.
Ohio State is hoping the return of Eichenberg will lead to another successful this year as the Buckeyes seek another College Football Playoff berth.
