Logs first career TD
Peoples notched 10 rushes for 51 yards and one touchdown and hauled in their only target for negative two yards during Saturday's 56-0 win against Western Michigan.
ANALYSIS
Peoples found the end zone on a 16-yard carry for his first career touchdown late in the third quarter. The 203-pound true freshman from Texas was one of the country's top running back recruits out of high school and it appears he's already taken over the RB3 role for the Buckeyes. As a result, he's gotten some late playing time during back-to-back blowout wins for the team this season. The team still has an elite two-headed monster in running backs Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson, so it's unlikely that Peoples will see significant playing time in many non-blowout wins for Ohio State moving forward. However, if either Henderson or Judkins are forced to miss time with injury, than Peoples could be in line for a productive RB2 role for the Buckeyes.
