With three receivers now committed, Ohio State will likely add one more wide receiver in the 2026 class. Kayden Dixon-Wyatt, a four-star prospect who plays alongside Henry at Mater Dei High School in Southern California, appears to be the Buckeyes’ top remaining target at the position. Other wide receivers who are scheduled to take official visits to Ohio State this summer include Jalen Lott, Messiah Hampton, Brayden Robinson, Jerquaden Guilford and Jabari Mack, an LSU commit.
