Son of NFL legend gets scholarship offer from Ohio State

Ohio State is hoping to land another player from arguably the greatest wide receiver family in football history.

Jett Harrison, the son of Marvin Harrison and younger brother of Marvin Harrison Jr., revealed on social media Sunday that he has received a scholarship offer from Ohio State.

Jett Harrison is part of the Class of 2028, so he has a while to go before he has to make a college decision. He has also received offers from Tennessee, Boston College, Duke and Syracuse.

Marvin Harrison is a Hall of Fame receiver who spent his entire NFL career with the Indianapolis Colts from 1996-2008. He made the Pro Bowl eight times while catching passes from Peyton Manning. The elder Harrison went to Syracuse.

Harrison Jr. was one of the best wide receivers in college football at Ohio State before the Arizona Cardinals drafted him with the No. 4 overall pick last year. He had 62 catches for 885 yards and eight touchdowns as a rookie, and many view him as a breakout candidate heading into his second season.

Given the success that both his father and older brother have had, you can understand why Jett Harrison has generated so many offers despite having several more years of high school.
