On Ohio State cornerback Cameron Brown's season-ending injury: “Cam came in with experience this season at a position where we couldn't afford to lose anyone. So to lose Cam, it's a significant hit. I really feel bad for Cam and his family.”

Ryan Day says Cameron Brown and Kourt Williams are still working their way back from their injuries last fall and will not participate in any contact drills this spring.

 

As Ohio State looks to turn the defense around, guys like Javontae Jean-Baptiste, Cody Simon, Ronnie Hickman and Cameron Brown could play important roles. https://t.co/eXRNwwiyHX

CAMERON BROWN
Maybe Brown is too good to call him an X-factor. He is, after all, an expected starting cornerback. But the Achilles injury that knocked him out of action last fall means he’ll come into fall camp with plenty of questions surrounding him and what he can be in 2021.

Is he fully healthy? Did he manage to get better at cornerback while rehabbing? Did he retain all of the speed that made him one of the more gifted athletes on the team? (It's been a year and a half since he said he thinks he can run a 4.3-second 40-yard dash)

Those have to get answered before anybody knows exactly how much Ohio State can expect out of him this fall.

In a perfect world, Brown will turn into a reliable starting cornerback opposite Sevyn Banks that Kerry Coombs and Matt Barnes who will help bring the moniker BIA back to Columbus after a season in which that term couldn’t be used with a straight face. If Brown isn’t up for the task, the Buckeyes would have to turn to Ryan Watts, Lejond Cavazos or some other young and unproven cornerback. But that’s not the goal. The goal is for Brown to be a starting outside cornerback for this defense – and an impactful one, at that.

Two reps. Two passes broken up.
Cameron Brown might be on a pitch count during training camp, but he's making the most of every chance to show what he can do in his return to the Ohio State secondary. https://t.co/UPIhXZFDE9
