Urban Meyer said on Monday that Curtis Samuel is set to get the first crack at punt returner against Maryland in place of Dontre Wilson. Turns out he wasn't lying.

The star H-back is listed as a co-starter at the position with K.J. Hill on Ohio State's latest depth chart, released Tuesday. Wilson's name is nowhere to be found at punt returner, but he is listed with Parris Campbell at kickoff returner. This is the first time all season Campbell's seen his name at kick returner despite taking over the primary duties more than a month ago.

Outside of that, there were no other changes on Ohio State's two-deep.

Ohio State travels to Maryland on Saturday. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. from Maryland Stadium.

Notes:

  • Redshirt sophomore Kyle Trout and redshirt junior Evan Lisle remain as co-backups at right guard in place of Demetrius Knox, who is out with a broken foot.
  • Joe Burger remains in place of Justin Hilliard at backup WILL linebacker, who is out for the season with a torn biceps. Ohio State still lists Jerome Baker and Dante Booker as a co-starters at that position, though Baker held the starting spot even since Booker went down with his injury in the season opener.
  • Booker missed Ohio State's wins against Tulsa, Oklahoma, Rutgers and Indiana with a sprained MCL. He dressed and warmed up before the game at Penn State, Northwestern and last week against Nebraska but did not play.
  • Baker remains Chris Worley's backup at SAM linebacker.
  • Sam Hubbard and Jalyn Holmes remain co-starters at defensive end opposite of Tyquan Lewis.
  • Marshon Lattimore remains a co-starter at one cornerback spot with Denzel Ward despite being second on the team with three interceptions.
  • Ohio State still lists nine starting positions with an "OR."
