Evan Pryor was expected to play a big role this year for the Ohio State Buckeyes, but he suffered an unfortunate knee injury that is going to sideline him this entire season.

The former top 100 recruit for the Buckeyes was in line to share time with Miyan Williams and TreVeyon Henderson, but after the injury on Monday, Pryor will be out.

Pryor redshirted the 2021 season after playing four games and would be eligible for a medical redshirt in 2022.

Pryor rushed for 98 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries as a true freshman for the Buckeyes last fall. Pryor’s injury leaves Ohio State with only three healthy scholarship running backs in Henderson, Williams and incoming freshman Dallan Hayden.
