Three-star 2027 defensive back Angelo Smith, brother of Jeremiah Smith, commits to Ohio State.
Former Ohio State wide receiver Terry McLaurin made NFL history on Monday night.
With six receptions for 70 yards and a touchdown in the Washington Redskins' loss to the Chicago Bears, McLaurin became the first player in league history to catch at least five passes and score a receiving touchdown in each of his first three NFL games.

He's the only player in the Super Bowl era to accomplish that feat.#MondayNightFootball
McLaurin caught five passes for 125 yards with a 69-yard touchdown in his debut game against the Philadelphia Eagles, then caught five passes for 62 yards with a one-yard touchdown reception in Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys.
On Monday night, McLaurin's touchdown catch came from 15 yards out.

On a Redskins team that has lost its first three games of the season, McLaurin – who the Redskins selected with the No. 76 overall pick in this year's NFL draft – has been perhaps their biggest bright spot.
