Ryan Day says Caleb Downs, an All-SEC safety at Alabama last year, has spent time in running back meetings this offseason and could see snaps at the position in 2024.
With Ohio State’s running back depth looking thin behind two-time All-Big Ten honoree TreVeyon Henderson and two-time All-SEC selection Quinshon Judkins, Day said safety Caleb Downs could get some looks at the position.
Day’s comments come as a surprise, considering Downs transferred to Ohio State after a stellar season in the secondary at Alabama. In 14 appearances for the Crimson Tide, Downs recorded 107 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, four pass breakups and two interceptions, earning SEC Freshman of the Year and first-team All-SEC honors after the regular season.
“We feel like if you have four strong running backs going into it, then that’s gonna be enough to carry this season,” Day said. “The quarterbacks will run the ball more this season, so that should take some carries away from them. James and Sam are gonna have to step up.”
