Notes
- The departures column includes players who exhausted their Ohio State eligibility, entered the NFL draft or entered the transfer portal after the 2024 season.
- The 85-man scholarship limit is no longer in place for the 2025 season. Ryan Day said he expects Ohio State to have 90 scholarship players in 2025.
