Ohio State head coach Ryan Day offered an update on wide receiver Jeremiah Smith after a concerning video emerged.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State will be without wide receiver Carnell Tate for its game against UCLA on Saturday. Star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith and running back CJ Donaldson are also questionable.

Julian Sayin played the bulk of Ohio State’s 48-10 win over UCLA without his two best weapons. Carnell Tate missed his second straight game with an injury, while Jeremiah Smith was limited to just 22 snaps in the win.
