The No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes managed to fend off the No. 5 Indiana Hoosiers to earn a 19-15 victory in Week 7. However, it may have come at the expense of quarterback Julian Sayin, who suffered a right elbow injury in the fourth quarter of that contest.

Head coach Ryan Day informed media members on Tuesday that the junior signal-caller is out indefinitely with the injury in his throwing arm, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel.

“Ohio State coach Ryan Day said that QB Julian Sayin is out indefinitely,” Thamel reported. “There’s a plan being put in place for Sayin not being available for both the regular season and postseason. He said there’s no specific timeline on the recovery. He’s dealing with an injury on his throwing arm.”

Day admitted that he and his program are preparing for the worst, as Thamel said in his report. The 47-year-old said that he and Ohio State are giving Sayin and his family privacy to deal with the injury before explaining how the Buckeyes plan to move forward, per Dillon Davis of the Delaware Gazette.

“So, first off, we’re not gonna put a timeline on [Julian Sayin’s] recovery, but he is out indefinitely,” Day said to media members. “And so, what we’re trying to do is give Julian and his family the space and privacy to go through this process.

“But based on the nature of the injury, we are putting together a plan for him not being available for the regular season and then also him not being available for the postseason,” Day continued. “So, based on that, if he’s not able to return next fall, we’ll put together a plan for that as well.”
