Stunning news for the No.5 Buckeyes, but likely means J.T. Barrett will be the season opening starter.

Miller injured his throwing shoulder this past January in his team's loss in the Orange Bowl to Clemson. 

Redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett is believed to be the closest quarterback behind Miller on the depth chart. 

In his three-year career at Ohio State, Miller has thrown for 5,292 yards and rushed for another 3,054. He has either passed or rushed for 84 touchdowns as a Buckeye.
