Every Monday, we’ll take a look at some of the best moments the world’s favorite real-time reaction app known as Twitter spits out. If you’re like me, you not only watch a few games involving former Ohio State players in the NFL, but you scroll through Twitter at the same time to see what you might have missed across this great country of ours.
And with so many Buckeyes in the NFL, there’s never a shortage of highlights, images, and reaction to what some from the Buckeye brotherhood are doing on the world’s biggest stage.
Here we are now in week three, and we’ve got the best scarlet and gray Ohio State moments from NFL games this past weekend. Let’s get after it.
Next … Best Buckeyes in the NFL Twitter moments

We’ll kick it off with a trio of former Ohio State players returning to Ohio. Terry McLaurin, Dwayne Haskins, and Chase Young all showed their Buckeye pride prior to the game against Cleveland.

Maybe more impressive though was Okudah’s submarining tackle in the 3rd quarter where he reads the play and gets to the ball carrier like a laser-guided missile.

Next, Joey Bosa did Joey Bosa things by bull-rushing his way into the backfield for a sack against Carolina.

How about two former Ohio State players combining for a stop in New Orleans. Malcolm Jenkins with the first hit that bounces Packers’ running back Aaron Jones back, followed by Marshon Lattimore finishing him off for a 4th down stop.
Call overturned – SHON SHUT IT DOWN! 💪
