Five Ohio State Freshmen Who Flashed During the 2022 Regular Season

The only scholarship freshman to get playing time in every regular-season game was Caden Curry. The defensive end from Indiana’s Center Grove High School leads the 2022 class with 14 tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss.

Against Arkansas State, Curry tallied a season-high four tackles and a six-yard tackle for loss. However, his best play of the season came on special teams against Iowa. Trailing 13-7 and facing 4th-and-6 from his own 30, Kirk Ferentz sent the Hawkeyes' punt team onto the field. Tory Taylor received the snap and rolled right to punt the ball away. When the punter gave a quick glance down the field, he spotted an open field and decided to run for the first down.

Curry, along with Xavier Johnson and Lathan Ransom, spotted Taylor trying to make a play and made him pay. All three players converged on Iowa's punter and Curry buried him into Ohio Stadium's synthetic turf for a turnover on downs. The Buckeyes took over at the Hawkeyes' 34-yard line and six plays later extended the lead to 16-7.

Throughout the season Curry was called on for regular duty on the kickoff, kickoff return and PAT/FG units. With a combined 267 snaps on defense and special teams, Curry has seen the most action of any Ohio State freshman in 2022.
