Marvin Harrison Jr. has revealed that the ankle injury he sustained two weeks ago is more severe than the one he experienced last season.
The wide receiver injured his ankle during Ohio State’s victory over Notre Dame two weeks ago, but he was fortunate to have a bye weekend for additional rest. With a game against Maryland scheduled for this weekend, he is eager to return to action, although he acknowledges that his current ankle sprain is worse than the one he had last season.

Throughout most of the previous season, the 21-year-old battled the earlier ankle issue, and there were concerns that he might miss significant playing time after the recent injury against Notre Dame. Nevertheless, he demonstrated resilience by finishing the game and making crucial plays that contributed to Ohio State’s significant victory.
A victory against the Terrapins this Saturday would propel the Buckeyes to a 5-0 record for the season.
