COLUMBUS, OH  — Terrelle Pryor’s career at Ohio State is over.

The Ohio State quarterback announced through his attorney Tuesday that he would not play for the Buckeyes this season. He had already been suspended for the first five games for breaking NCAA rules by accepting improper benefits from the owner of a tattoo parlor.

“In the best interests of my teammates, I’ve made the decision to forgo my senior year of football at Ohio State University,” Pryor said in a statement issued by Columbus lawyer Larry James.

Pryor will most likely make himself available for an NFL supplemental draft.
