Former Ohio State player highlights and moments from the first week of the NFL preseason
It's no secret that Ohio State is an NFL football factory. The Buckeyes have sent a slew of players to the game's highest level, and it's not just a recent thing -- though that too has been the case with 14 players being selected in the NFL draft off of last year's College Football Playoff national championship squad. We like to take a little peek into some of the NFL action after Saturdays are done during the college football season, and with the preseason already kicking off this past weekend, it seems like a good time to check in to see what former Buckeyes are doing in the NFL as things continue towards the start of the 2025-2026 NFL calendar. There are plenty of former Ohio State football players littered across NFL rosters, and many are fighting for either a spot or a larger role within their team. At other times, some are well established but still queueing up the highlight machine, even early on as things get rollin.' Here's a look at some of the best moments and highlights from former Ohio State players doing showing up and showing out during Week 1 of the NFL preseason. TreVeyon Henderson takes it the distance Henderson is a big play waiting to happen, and he showed that immediately by taking his first touch 100 yards for a touchdown. You can expect the Patriots to try and get the ball to him a lot this year to take advantage of his game-breaking ability. Once a Buckeye ... The brotherhood is real. You see these types of meet-ups and camaraderie every time Ohio State players meet up in the NFL and beyond. Justin Fields settles in Looks like Fields wore a "jersey" to the stadium for his Jets debut before he slipped on the real thing. We'll see more from him in a moment. Jack Sawyer in the black and gold If you ever wondered what Jack Sawyer would look like as an Iowa Hawkeye, here's your chance. All jokes aside, Sawyer looks the part and had flashes in his first action for the Steelers. Emeka Egbuka from the Bucks to the Bucs Look, finally, a football player that looks normal walking into a game. Some of these guys get awfully weird with their wardrobes once money is no option. Ebugka is endearing himself awfully well to his teammates and fans already down in Tampa, and it's just the beginning. Egbuka hauls in his first catch You can bet that this will be the first of many. I have zero doubt that Ebguka is going to thrive down in Tampa, and we'll be talking about him a lot! Fields showing off that athletic ability And ... this is what Fields brings to the table for New York. If he can find some chemistry with his wide receivers, look out for a breakout year. Trey Sermon finds pay dirt It'll probably be hard for Sermon to carve out a significant role in the Steel City, but finding the end zone more often certainly doesn't hurt. Three Buckeyes flying high for the Jets If you are an Ohio State fan, there are a few teams that are now appointment television, with the latest being the New York Jets, which have a trio ready to improve the passing game in the Big Apple.

'Bombshell' Ohio State Cheerleader Trending Before Season Opener
'Bombshell' Ohio State Cheerleader Trending Before Season Opener originally appeared on The Spun. A "bombshell" Ohio State Buckeyes cheerleader is trending on social media ahead of the 2025 season. Ohio State could open the year as the No. 1 team in the country. The Buckeyes, who went 14-2 last season, en route to a national championship, lost a lot from their title-winning team. But they bring back plenty of stars, too, including All-American wide receivers Jeremiah Smith and defensive back Caleb Downs. Ohio State should be loaded once again. The Buckeyes will open the year with a big game, hosting Texas at The Horseshoe. It could be a No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup in Columbus. ESPN's "College GameDay" will be in town, as will FOX's "Big Noon Kickoff." Ahead of the season opener, a "bombshell" Ohio State Buckeyes cheerleader is trending on social media. She's very excited for the start of the regular season. Avery Thielman, a veteran Ohio State Buckeyes cheerleader, is trending on social media before the Week 1 season opener against the Texas Longhorns. "Found this in my drafts and got excited for weekends to look like this again #onemonthaway," she wrote on Instagram. While Avery is ready for the 2025 college football season, she's been spending some time out west, too. She recently enjoyed a trip out to Los Angeles. "OH -> LA," she wrote. Ohio State and Texas, meanwhile, are scheduled to kick off at 12 p.m. E.T. on Saturday, Aug. 30. The game will air live on FOX.
