As of this spring, Ohio State running backs coach Tony Alford said the plan for Steele Chambers was to keep him at running back, but he was among the Buckeye players coaching up linebackers at today's camp (while representing his hometown Atlanta Braves). pic.twitter.com/05qcfGT86b

Averaged 7.9 yards a carry and now has been moved to linebacker.......

Depth at running back is unreal.....

 

Steele Chambers is now with the LBs. He was helping with the LBs last month at OSU camps, so this move has been teased. And Palaie Gaoteote is once again confirmed to be in Columbus. https://t.co/AZ8bueSk2S

• Steele Chambers, who has been said to be cross-training between running back and linebacker, was also with the linebackers (and wearing a white defensive jersey) for the entire portion of practice that was open to the media. He was also listed on the roster distributed to media in attendance solely as a linebacker.

 

• On Steele Chambers at linebacker: "He looks excellent out there moving around." He says "there's a great opportunity for him to get on the field there" but they're going to get his feedback on working at linebacker later after the practice.
