Ohio State's early enrollees have received their jersey numbers for the start of their Buckeye careers.

The list of early enrollees and their new digits:

Ohio State's 2021 Early Enrollees
No. Player Pos
33 JACK SAWYER DE
12 EMEKA EGBUKA WR
32 TREVEYON HENDERSON RB
14 KYLE MCCORD QB
10 JAYDEN BALLARD WR
21 EVAN PRYOR RB

91 TYLEIK WILLIAMS DT
29 DENZEL BURKE CB

65 ZEN MICHALSKI OT
81 SAM HART TE

TreVeyon Henderson shared via social media that he chose his number to honor his grandfather, who also wore No. 32.

Kyle McCord takes the No. 14 that C.J. Stroud (who's now wearing No. 7) wore for most of last season, while Jayden Ballard takes the No. 10 vacated by Mookie Cooper when he transferred to Missouri. Evan Pryor's No. 21 was most recently worn on offense by Parris Campbell. Sam Hart takes over the No. 81 previously worn at his position by Jake Hausmann. Ben Christman becomes the latest offensive lineman to wear No. 71, previously worn by Josh Myers.

Jack Sawyer is wearing the same No. 33 that Zach Harrison wore in his freshman year at Ohio State and that James Laurinaitis made famous for the Buckeyes. Jantzen Dunn follows in the footsteps of Malik Hooker and Shaun Wade by wearing No. 24 in Ohio State's secondary.

Reid Carrico will be keeping his high school number, wearing the same No. 28 for the Buckeyes that he wore at Ironton.
