Six Former Ohio State Football Players, Led By Michael Thomas, Make NFL's Top 100 Players of 2020

Ohio State is well-represented once again on this year's edition of the NFL Top 100.

Six former Buckeyes made this year's edition of NFL Network's annual countdown, which ranks the league's top 100 players as voted on by the players themselves, led by New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas, who was the highest-ranked Buckeye on the list for the second year in a row.

Ranked 13th on last year's list, Thomas moved up in the top 10 this year – checking in at No. 5 – and was the top-ranked wide receiver on the countdown after breaking the NFL's single-season catch record with 149 receptions for 1,725 yards and nine touchdowns in 2019.
