Ohio State quarterback Julian Sayin is out indefinitely with a shoulder injury suffered against Indiana.

Ohio State quarterback Julian Sayin is out indefinitely after suffering a shoulder injury during Saturday's 19-15 win over Indiana. He was injured on a fourth-quarter sack and was wearing a sling after evaluation. True freshman Luke Fahey replaced him in the game.

Head coach Ryan Day told reporters on Tuesday that the team is preparing for Sayin not to be available for the remainder of the regular season or the College Football Playoff. 'We're not gonna put any timeline on his recovery, but he is out indefinitely,' Day said. He added that the team is giving Sayin and his family privacy to go through the process.

Fahey, who had been ahead of sophomore Tavien St. Clair entering the Indiana game, will compete with St. Clair during Ohio State's bye week to determine the starter for the team's road match against No. 16 USC on Halloween. Day said the team will play 'the guy that gives us the best chance to win'. Sayin had thrown for 2,007 yards, 19 touchdowns and four interceptions this season with a 68.2 completion percentage.
