Ohio State football’s Haskell Garrett talks about being shot in 2020

Absolutely no one can question Haskell Garrett’s toughness and determination. While there have been few details, most Ohio State fans will remember Garrett being shot in the face in early August before the 2020 season and returning to play in the Buckeye’s first game.

The Ohio State defensive lineman hasn’t talked much about the incident but with the NFL draft approaching, Garrett made an appearance on the NFL Network and was asked about the shooting. To hear how it all played out in his own words is fascinating, to say the least. The young man is truly fortunate to be alive, let alone be able to play the game he loves.

Listen to Garrett’s own words as he spoke with the hosts of Good Morning Football.

What an incredible story of heroism and helping someone in need. And that folks, is one of the many reasons Haskell Garrett will always be a fan favorite and a legend of the scarlet and gray.
