The Ohio State Buckeyes have four defenders, EDGE Arvell Reese, LB Sonny Styles, safety Caleb Downs, and DT Kayden McDonald, who will be taken in the 2026 NFL draft.

Keim also mentioned receiver Carnell Tate as an option for Washington quarterback Jayden McDaniels. On both sides of the ball, the Buckeyes could reportedly bail out the downtrodden Commanders.
