Much like Denzel Ward, Darron Lee kicked off the 2018 NFL season with a bang intercepting Matthew Stafford twice and taking one back for a touchdown on Monday Night Football. On the season Lee has 7 tackles, 4 assists, 2 interceptions and 1 TD. Buckeye fans get the pleasure of watching him face off against the likes of Denzel Ward and Carlos Hyde on Thursday Night Football tomorrow night.
1. Michael Thomas
2018 Season: Games Played 2 | 28 Receptions | 269 Yards | 9.6 Y/C | 3 TDs
Last Week vs Browns: 12 Receptions | 89 Yards | 7.4 Y/C | 2 TDs
Michael Thomas kind of flew under the radar as a receiver getting drafted in the 2016 NFL draft as the 47th pick. However, Buckeye fans across the land knew what he could do and now in his third season in the league he has shown himself to be a top 5 receiver in this league.
So far on the season Thomas is 1st in the NFL with 28 receptions, 2nd in the league in receiving yards with 269, and tied for 2nd in receiving touchdowns with 3. There is no doubt that he has been the best Buckeye alum in the NFL this season and we continue to look for big things from him.
