“That’s Why He’s the Backup”: NFL Hall of Famer Pins Blame on Luke Fahey’s Struggles After Ryan Day’s Ohio State Upset Loss

Ryan Day took a gamble on Luke Fahey when Julian Sayin went down, choosing the freshman over Tavien St. Clair to lead Ohio State against USC. It was a huge opportunity for Fahey, but his first career start ended with a 30-18 loss on the road. With the Buckeyes now facing uncomfortable questions about their quarterback room, Shannon Sharpe has offered his verdict, and he isn’t holding back. While speaking on The Nightcap, Chad Johnson suggested that Ohio State’s decision to play its backup quarterback may have contributed to the loss to USC.
