      College career


      Bryant was pressed into safety duty as a true freshman in 2010 because of an injury to Tyler Moeller, but a foot issue kept him out of five games later in the season. He played in all 12 games in 2011, started nine times while battling through a shoulder issue that finally caused him to miss the regular season finale at Michigan. Ranked in a tie for third in the Big Ten with eight pass break-ups, and his eight total passes defended (pass breakups and interceptions) ranked 13th in the league. Was tied for second among Buckeyes in passes defended and was also third on the team with 68 tackles.
