Dallas Gant preferred not to get into the details of what happened. He declined to divulge the specifics of what he’s dealing with.
Yet he did say he will miss the entirety of Ohio State’s already-underway spring practices with a foot injury that has him walking gingerly. The senior linebacker says he’ll get back to working out at some point in the summer with a “full recovery” expected well before the season kicks off.
Llinebackers coach Al Washington said Gant missed time in the offseason due to injury last year, too. At that point, though, the Buckeyes viewed him as a backup with Tuf Borland and Pete Werner taking the vast majority of snaps at the two inside linebacker spots.
