Marvin Harrison Jr. Makes Impact After Injury, Defense Bends But (Mostly) Doesn't Break

An ankle injury didn’t stop Marvin Harrison Jr. from returning and making an impact down the stretch against Notre Dame.

Ohio State’s star receiver got his right ankle rolled up on by Fighting Irish safety Xavier Watts during a 61-yard touchdown run by TreVeyon Henderson in the third quarter and entered the Buckeyes’ medical tent but returned to the sideline – then the field – on his team’s next drive.

On his first play back in the game, the Pennsylvania native caught a pass from Kyle McCord on an in-breaking route and gained 6 yards.
