Ohio State released its Availability Report ahead of the noon kickoff against Nebraska this afternoon. There was only one major news item, but it was a big one with junior wide receiver Garrett Wilson being listed as unavailable. Sources tell BuckeyeScoop.com that Wilson is dealing with some post-concussion symptoms and that is absence from the lineup is expected to be short term.
Second year wide receiver Julian Fleming is expected to start in Wilson’s place. Fleming was the No. 1 wide receiver recruit in the 2020 recruiting class but has had issues staying healthy over the past 18 months. Now the former five-star will have a big opportunity on Saturday to make an impact for the Buckeyes.
