Tyreke Smith dealing with injury

After not playing football since the seventh grade, the one thing that Cleveland Heights 2018 defensive end/tight end Tyreke Smith didn’t want to do was miss any time this season.

Unfortunately, the 6-foot-4, 240-pound prospect will do just that. He injured his ankle in practice last week and could miss a few weeks.

“I dove for a tackle in practice and messed up my Achilles and a muscle in my lower leg,” Smith told Landof10.com “I just messed up ligaments and muscles. I may miss a few games, but I could be back this Friday. Hopefully.”

Smith is the country’s fourth-ranked weakside defensive prospect – mostly on potential – and has 13 scholarship offers currently, but does not have one from the Buckeyes, who wanted to see game film before making that decision. If he misses time, Smith will just focus on mental reps, he says.

“I just need to rehab and lift,” he said. “I felt I was playing pretty good, so it’s just about getting back to it.”

The two-sport star at Cleveland Heights told Landof10.com that he’s working on setting up his next visit to Ohio State and hopes to get to a game in Columbus soon.
