Ohio State Defensive End Kenyatta Jackson Jr. Exits Minnesota Game With Injury

Ohio State is down one of its starting defensive ends against Minnesota.

Kenyatta Jackson Jr. went down after delivering a hit to Minnesota quarterback Drake Lindsey that forced an incompletion and has exited the contest. NBC later reported that the injury was a "stinger."

Jackson stayed on the ground for a few minutes after the hit to Lindsey, then wobbled when he first stood up. He did walk off the field under his own power, however. He was spotted on an exercise bike during Ohio State's following offensive possession.

North Carolina transfer Beau Atkinson came on for Jackson to play opposite Caden Curry, Ohio State's other starting defensive end.
