This time, it is Braxton Miller, who has signed with the Cleveland Browns with just two weeks of preseason remaining.

Barrett, and then Cardale Jones, to step up in his place, eventually leading Ohio State to a national championship. From there, Miller switched to the H-back position, where he found some modest success, finishing the 2015 season with 43 rushes for 261 yards, and 25 catches for 360 yards, with four total touchdowns. What wasn’t modest was Miller’s highlight play in Week 1 against Virginia Tech, where he famously spun around a pair of Hokies defenders on his way to a 53-yard score.
