Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller's shoulder surgery is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, according to The Columbus Dispatch's Bill Rabinowitz.

Miller will miss the entire 2014 season after partially tearing his right labrum during practice on Monday. He also injured his shoulder during January's Orange Bowl loss to Clemson and sat out spring practice after having surgery.

Ohio State opens the season on Aug. 30 against Navy.
