Wilson leads the Buckeyes' receiving corps with 43 catches for 687 yards on the season.
Ohio State will be without a key component on offense when it takes the field at Nebraska, as junior wide receiver Garrett Wilson is among the 14 players sidelined on Saturday afternoon.
This will be the first game Wilson has missed in his three-year career, which spans 30 games to this point. The Buckeyes will likely call upon redshirt freshman Julian Fleming and true freshmen Emeka Egbuka and Marvin Harrison Jr. in his absence.
Other players unavailable on Saturday include redshirt freshman quarterback Jack Miller, who was suspended on Friday following his arrest for driving a vehicle while impaired, as well as junior offensive lineman Harry Miller, who will miss his third straight game after suffering an unspecified injury in the win over Maryland.
That said, the full status report is as follows:
- Junior wide receiver Kamryn Babb (out for season)
- Redshirt sophomore running back Marcus Crowley (long-term injury)
- Freshman safety Jantzen Dunn (long-term injury)
- Senior defensive end Tyler Friday (out for season)
- Redshirt freshman defensive lineman Darrion Henry-Young
- Freshman cornerback Jakailin Johnson
- Freshman safety Jaylen Johnson (out for season)
- Redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Jaden McKenzie
- Redshirt freshman linebacker Mitchell Melton
