Another year, another group of Buckeyes are invited to the NFL Scouting Combine.
The NFL announced on Tuesday the list of 321 players headed to the Combine taking place Feb. 26-March 4, and eight members of Ohio State received invitations.
Among Ohio State’s eight invitees include: linebackers Steele Chambers and Tommy Eichenberg, defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr., wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., offensive lineman Matthew Jones, safety Josh Proctor, tight end Cade Stover and running back Milan Williams.
The widely projected top-five pick Harrison will get a chance to display his skills on the same field as his NFL Hall of Fame father Marvin Harrison Sr. at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. He’ll take part in wide receiver drills March 2.
Chambers, Eichenberg and Hall will be the first Buckeyes taking part in on-field workouts at the Combine on Feb. 29. They’ll be followed March 1 by Proctor and Stover then Williams on March 2 and Jones March 3.
The Buckeyes have had a nation’s-best 77 total Combine invitees over the past nine seasons, according to a release.
Michigan had a Combine-record 18 players invited this year. Among the Wolverines will be quarterback J.J. McCarthy, running back Blake Corum and defensive lineman Kris Jenkins.
Ohio State’s most amount of players it has sent to the Combine is 16 in 2016, which included most players from its College Football Playoff National Championship team.
The Buckeyes will compete in drills among the best college football players in the country. LSU quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels also received an invite to the Combine, as well as fellow Biletnikoff Award finalists Malik Nabers of LSU and Washington’s Rome Odunze.
The Combine begins Feb. 29, and it will be broadcast on NFL Network and NFL+ at 3 p.m. The NFL Draft starts April 25.
