Damon Arnette Isn't Letting Broken Wrist Slow Him Down in Senior Season at Ohio State

Damon Arnette has been playing with a broken wrist all season.

The fifth-year senior Ohio State cornerback suffered the injury during the first two weeks of preseason camp. As he attempted to punch the ball out of J.K. Dobbins’ hand on a run during practice, his right wrist bent backward.

That wasn’t enough to take him off the field, however.

“I finished that practice though, by the way,” Arnette made sure to say while explaining on Wednesday how he suffered the injury.

At the time, Arnette didn’t realize he had broken his wrist. He didn’t know that until after the third game of the season, when he decided to undergo an X-ray due to lingering pain.
