The week after the spring game, defensive coordinator Luke Fickell said the coaches limited Burrows’ reps at the beginning of spring practices because of concerns of rushing him back after his foot surgery last fall. Then his knee started hurting when his reps increased.
“It’s not a fair assessment to look at him and evaluate him on where he’s playing in the last two weeks of spring ball,” Fickell said. “It’s a process.”
Fong, a walk-on defensive lineman, played two seasons with the Buckeyes. He earned a degree in pharmaceutical sciences.
Offensive linemen Pat Elflein and Jacoby Boren, running backs Bri’onte Dunn and Warren Ball, wide receivers Corey Smith and Kato Mitchell and linebacker Curtis Grant were among the current and former Buckeyes to graduate.
