Ohio State tight end Kierre Hawkins appears to be headed to Youngstown State.
The redshirt freshman from Maple Heights, Ohio, posted a photo of himself wearing a Youngstown State uniform on Instagram on Monday night, suggesting that he will be transferring to the Football Championship Subdivision program.
A four-star recruit out of high school, Hawkins has not played a snap for the Buckeyes this season after redshirting the 2016 season. He previously missed time during spring practice for academic reasons.
An Ohio State spokesperson confirmed Tuesday that Hawkins is leaving the program.
