Cade Stover Emerging As Weapon in Ohio State’s Passing Offense After Working to Improve As Receiver This Offseason

From 2014-21, no Ohio State tight end had more than two total 30-yard receptions.

In the first three games of the 2022 season, Cade Stover already has three.

Stover, who caught only five passes for 76 yards in 2021 but already has eight catches for 137 yards this year, made his first big play in the passing game in Ohio State’s second game of the season against Arkansas State. After the Red Wolves left him open on a wheel route, Stover made a leaping catch about 20 yards downfield, then proceeded to drag multiple defenders for additional yardage to finish with a 35-yard gain.
