Ohio State WR Marvin Harrison Jr. declares for the 2024 NFL Draft… Heisman finalist expected to be a top FIVE pick after winning Biletnikoff Award as a junior

Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. will forfeit his senior year with the Buckeyes to pursue his NFL dreams.

On Thursday, Harrison declared his entry to the 2024 NFL Draft while thanking his school on social media.

‘I would like to thank God for blessing me with the abilities and great opportunity to play the game that I love at The Ohio State University,’ Harrison wrote.

‘I want to give thanks to everyone at The Ohio State University within and outside the football program.’

Harrison, son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison Sr., is projected to be the No 2 overall pick by ESPN.

As well as being a finalist for the coveted Heisman Trophy this past season, Harrison secured the Biletnikoff Award – crowning him the best receiver in college football.

Despite sitting out the Buckeyes’ 14-3 loss to Missouri in the 2023 Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic, Harrison became the first receiver in program history to record consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons.

As a junior, Harrison caught 67 passes for 1,211 yards and 14 touchdowns in 12 games. During his breakout sophomore season, he made 77 receptions for 1,263 yards and 14 touchdowns.

As a freshman, Harrison Jr. memorably caught three touchdown passes in the 2022 Rose Bowl Game, when OSU secured a 48-45 win over Utah.

‘To Buckeye Nation, the love I received from you all in the Shoe and on the road will be moments I cherish forever, and I hope I left lasting memories for you on the field,’ Harrison wrote on X. ‘I appreciate the support these past three years. Buckeye for life.’
