Ohio State's Dontre Wilson: Healthy heading into 2016

Wilson (foot) recently announced that he will be ready for Ohio State's season opener, Tim May of the Columbus Post-Dispatch reports.

Analysis:

Wilson's career at Ohio State has been marred by injuries, but it appears that he's finally healthy heading into his final season. His return comes at a pivotal time for the Buckeyes after the departures of Ezekiel Elliott, Michael Thomas, Jalin Marshall on the offensive side of the ball. Wilson's versatility will be particularly useful if he can stay healthy given his dynamic abilities as both a runner and as a pass catcher. He told reporters that he's been focusing particularly on his route running, which will make him an even more dangerous threat in a passing game that lacks established weapons.
