6 Buckeyes Who Could Be Playing A Bigger Role On Defense This Fall

The 2024 Ohio State defense brings back the majority of starters from what was already one of the best units in the entire country. But even with the return of players like JT Tuimoloau, Jack Sawyer, Tyleik Williams, Denzel Burke, Davison Igbinosun, Jordan Hancock, and Lathan Ransom, there are still plenty of opportunities for Buckeyes who haven't played much so far in their careers to take on a much bigger role this fall.In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, you'll hear directly from OSU defensive coordinator Jim Knowles about some of those players, including DT Tywone Malone, DE Mitchell Melton, SAF Jayden Bonsu and Jaylen McClain, CB Calvin Simpson-Hunt, and LB CJ Hicks.
