Ohio State's Senior Linebacker Needs More Pass-Rushing Opportunities in 2020

As Ohio State’s players slowly walked off of the indoor practice field at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center following the second spring practice in March, Baron Browning hung around.

He had to get in some reps as a pass-rusher before heading back to the locker room.

It was as though his pregame routine from the 2019 season had translated into a post-practice routine. In the hour-and-a-half before just about every game last fall, Browning spent a few minutes working on his standup pass-rushing technique.

Ahead of the Indiana and Nebraska game, he worked on his pass-rush moves with former defensive line graduate assistant Kenny Anunike, and before the Maryland beatdown, he got reps in with the rest of the defensive linemen then spent a couple of minutes with Anunike and Teradja Mitchell working on their outside rush.
