Ohio State isn't going to have as many players at the NFL Combine this year as opposed to last but the Buckeyes will have one position represented that is different than from 2016: Punter.
Australian-born and Ray Guy Award Finalist Cameron Johnston has received an invitation to the 2017 NFL Combine, according to his agents at Enter-Sports.

The Aussie led the Big Ten in punting average at 46.7 yards per boot. That clip was good for fifth-best in the country. Now, he will get a chance to show what he can do to NFL teams up close and personal.
Specialists head to Indianapolis on Feb. 28 for registration and pre-examinations. Measurements, more exams and interviews come the following day, and more of the same on March 2. Johnston's final day at the combine is set to be March 3, where his on-field workout is scheduled to take place.
