Brandon Huffman of 247 Sports has reported that Ohio State EDGE JT Tuimoloau will bypass the NFL Draft and return for his senior season in 2024. The announcement, confirmed by Tuimoloau via Instagram, is a significant boost for the Buckeyes as he joins other projected top-100 prospects like CB Denzel Burke, WR Emeka Ebguka, EDGE Jack Sawyer, DT Tyleik Williams, and OG Donovan Jackson in staying at Columbus. Tuimoloau's stats in his three career games against Michigan show his progression, with 2 total tackles in 2021, 4 total tackles and 2 pressures in 2022, and 4 total tackles and 3 pressures in 2023, though he has yet to record a sack against them. His return is part of a trend for Ohio State, retaining most of its defensive front for the upcoming season.
