Ohio State Buckeyes quarterback Julian Sayin is recovering from surgery after sustaining an arm injury during the team's victory over the Indiana Hoosiers on October 17, 2026. The freshman signal-caller, wearing number 10, was photographed leaving the field at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington, Indiana, with his throwing arm in a sling following the Buckeyes' win.
An Ohio State insider confirmed the surgical procedure to Heavy.com on November 6, though specific details regarding the nature of the injury and expected recovery timeline have not been disclosed. Sayin, a highly touted recruit, had seen playing time during the 2026 season before the injury occurred in the road contest against Indiana.
The Buckeyes coaching staff has not yet released an official statement on Sayin's status for the remainder of the season. Backup quarterback options will likely be evaluated as Ohio State continues its conference schedule.
