Another Ohio State starter appears to be dealing with an injury issue in the first half of Saturday's contest.
After star running back TreVeyon Henderson was sidelined with an apparent leg injury in the first quarter, starting cornerback Cameron Brown has now gone back to the locker room with an Buckeye trainer before halftime.
Brown gave up a 50-yard touchdown pass on Toledo's opening drive, and second-year corner JK Johnson eventually came in for the veteran defensive back on subsequent drives.
Brown isn't the only member of the Ohio State secondary dealing with injury, as starting safeties Josh Proctor and Tanner McCalister were officially ruled out minutes before kickoff in Columbus. No. 3 cornerback Jordan Hancock was also unavailable for the second straight game, and reserve safeties Jantzen Dunn and Jaylen Johnson were out for the Buckeyes as well.
Ohio State went to halftime with a 42-14 lead over Toledo, although the Buckeyes gave up more touchdowns to the Rockets in one half of play than they did in the first two weeks combined.
