COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State will be without nine players including running back Miyan Williams and wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba against Maryland this afternoon.
Williams was injured during last week's game against Indiana. Before his injury, Williams had 147 on 15 carries and one touchdown which came on a 48-yard run.
Late in the second quarter, the back was tackled after four-yard run and needed help getting to the sideline. He eventually was carted back to the locker room but later returned to the sideline with crutches.
Smith-Njigba is still recovering from an injury he sustained in the season opener against Notre Dame. He has twice this season attempted to comeback but is listed as unavailable for a fourth consecutive game.
Running back TreVeyon Henderson, who has missed the last two games, is slated to return against the Terrapins.
