With
the New England Patriots' win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night, Nate Ebner became just the
second former Ohio State player ever to win three Super Bowls.
Ebner, who previously won titles with the Patriots in
2015 and 2017, matches Mike Vrabel – who also won all three of his titles with
the Patriots, in 2002, 2004 and 2005 – as the only Buckeyes to win the NFL's
biggest game three times.
John Simon, who also
plays for the Patriots, becomes the 31st different Buckeye to win a Super
Bowl in his first appearance in the big game. His highlight of the night came
in the second quarter, when he broke up a pass from Rams quarterback Jared Goff
at the line of scrimmage.
