Caleb Downs: Ohio State's Dominant Safety
Update: 2025-12-27
Description
Caleb Downs, Ohio States junior safety, had a breakout season in 2025, becoming the best safety in college football and a key player for the Buckeyes. With 60 total tackles, 5 tackles for loss, 1 sack, 2 interceptions, and 2 pass breakups, Downs dominated in coverage, stuffed the run, and stopped big plays. As a team captain, he led Ohio State to an elite pass defense and major awards, including the Lott Impact Trophy, Jim Thorpe Award, Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year, and first-team All-America honors. Downs smarts and leadership in Matt Patricias scheme powered a top-ranked defense that rarely let teams pass for over 200 yards. As the 2026 NFL draft approaches, Downs is expected to be a top-ten pick, cementing his legacy as a dominant force and one of Ohio States toughest defenses ever.
