Joey Bosa Returns to the Field Saturday So Who Will Watch Ezekiel Elliott's Puppy?

Joey Bosa returns from his mysterious one-game suspension on Saturday. The Ohio State defensive lineman had to stay home last week as #1 tOSU beat Virginia Tech on the road, 42-24. While redshirt freshman Sam Hubbard filled in admirably on the field, Bosa was back in Columbus, watching Ezekiel Elliott’s puppy. But not before showing how his intensity and frustration at practice. Via ESPN:

"“Bosa marched through the Woody Hayes Athletic Center dripping with sweat after one of the final practices before the Buckeyes left him behind. He had stayed a full 30 minutes for individual work after the rest of the roster had hit the showers and there was no mistaking the intensity on Bosa’s face.”"

O-H boy! Looks like we’ve got another case of Athlete Really Wants To Play Even Gooder Now Because Motivation!

"“You know, he was hurt for sure,” Elliott said. “But he’s handling it well. He’s going to come back stronger than ever. He’s definitely ready after the offseason and then not being able to play. “He’s definitely going to come out with a chip on his shoulder, and I think you’ll probably see a different Joey than before — which is kind of scary.”"

Expect every Hawaii play to result in a loss of yardage or a turnover if Joey Bosa is on the field. He’s going to be different! If that means Ezekiel Elliott’s puppy has to stay home alone for an afternoon then so be it!
