Ryan Day, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Kevin Wilson have appreciated Chris Olave’s presence at practice this week even though he doesn’t plan to play in Saturday’s Rose Bowl.
Should Olave have a last-minute change of heart and decide he wants to play in Saturday’s Rose Bowl, Ryan Day said Friday the door would be open for Olave to play. But Day doesn’t expect that to happen.
Utah defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley would prepare for the possibility of Olave playing just in case. More likely, Olave will watch the entire game from the sidelines. But Day is glad just to have Olave’s presence around the team for one more game, and Olave’s decision not to play against Utah hasn’t lessened Day’s appreciation for everything Olave has given to the Buckeyes during his four years at Ohio State, especially this year after he delayed his opportunity to be an early-round NFL draft pick.
Wilson also appreciates that Olave, the only one of the four players who opted out that traveled with the team to Los Angeles, has continued to work with the Buckeyes this week even though he’s decided not to play to preserve his health for the 2022 NFL draft, in which he’s projected to be a first-round pick.
