Both teams that made last season's Super Bowl are among four NFL teams scouting Saturday's game at Ohio Stadium between Ohio State and Illinois.
The Atlanta Falcons are scheduled to have two scouts in attendance at Saturday's game, while the New England Patriots are scheduled to have one scout in attendance, marking the second consecutive week the Patriots are scouting an Ohio State game.
The New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys are also each scheduled to have one scout at Saturday's game, as will the CFL's Saskatchewan Roughriders, who were also in attendance for last week's Ohio State game against Michigan State.
Illinois does not have many 2018 NFL draft prospects on its roster, but Ohio State's roster includes many potential NFL players who are set to play their final game in Ohio Stadium on Saturday, including center Billy Price, defensive ends Tyquan Lewis and Jalyn Holmes, offensive tackle Jamarco Jones, linebacker Chris Worley and safety Damon Webb, among others.
