Julian Sayin Injury: What We Know About Ohio State's Star Quarterback

Ohio State might have bigger problems than the very few flaws the Buckeyes have shown this season after quarterback Julian Sayin was injured during the Week 7 19-15 win against Indiana on the road.

Against Indiana in a rematch of the 2025 Big Ten championship game, Sayin — who entered Week 7 tied for fourth with 17 passing touchdowns this season and ranked sixth among FBS quarterbacks with 1,772 passing yards — left the field and went to the locker room with about eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.

It was unclear what injury Sayin may have suffered, but Ohio State head coach Ryan Day said after the game that Sayin will be out for "several weeks." Here's what we know so far about the Ohio State quarterback's injury.

In the fourth quarter against Indiana in Bloomington, the Hoosiers sacked Sayin on first-and-10 from Indiana's 38-yard line.

He fumbled the ball, and it was recovered by the Buckeyes.

But it appears Sayin was injured on this play.

When Sayin left the game, he had completed 15-of-29 passes for 235 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions against the Hoosiers.

Sayin left the game in the middle of the fourth quarter, and while he didn't return to action, he was back on the field for the end of the game.

When he came back out of the locker room, he had his throwing arm (right) in a sling.

Following the Buckeyes' 19-15 road win over Indiana, FOX Sports' Jenny Taft asked Ohio State coach Ryan Day if he had an update about Sayin's injury.

"I don't have [an update] right now," Day told Taft.

"Obviously, that was a big blow to us, but the rest of the team picked it up for us." At Day's post-game press conference, the head coach offered an additional update on Sayin.

As our Ben Portnoy reported, Day expects Sayin to be out for a couple weeks.

When Sayin left the Indiana game during the fourth quarter, true freshman quarterback Luke Fahey replaced him as the top-5 matchup was on the line.
