Wilson joins a growing list of Ohio State standouts that won’t participate in Saturday’s game. Receiver Chris Olave, offensive tackle Nicholas Petit-Frere and defensive tackle Haskell Garrett also wont be available, according to coach Ryan Day.
After totaling 2,213 yards receiving and 23 touchdowns in three seasons at Ohio State, Wilson is considered one of the top receivers in the upcoming draft.
