Lamont Bishop Announces He’s Turning Pro, Won’t Return to OSU in 2023

After a career game in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl for OSU vs. Wisconsin, linebacker Lamont Bishop on Thursday announced he is turning pro and preparing for the NFL Draft. Bishop, who joined OSU via the junior college ranks two years ago, was believed to have one year of eligibility remaining because of COVID but said his decision to leave the program was made for him after recently finding out he no longer has any eligibility in college.

“After finding out I am all out of eligibility, I will be entering the 2023 NFL Draft,” he posted on social media.
