Six NFL teams will have scouts at Ohio Stadium for today’s game against Iowa.
The Atlanta Falcons and Chicago Bears will each have two representatives attending, while the Carolina Panthers, Detroit Lions, New York Giants and New York Jets also have scouts in attendance.
Those scouts will have the opportunity to watch projected first-round pick Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who is returning to action against Iowa after missing four of Ohio State’s first six games, along with a host of other Buckeyes who could be early-round draft picks including C.J. Stroud, Paris Johnson Jr., Dawand Jones and Cade Stover. Iowa’s top draft prospects who are likely to draw the eyes of NFL scouts include linebacker Jack Campbell, cornerback Riley Moss and tight end Sam LaPorta.
