Davison Igbinosun Disputes Claim That He Wore Mitts in Practice to Prevent Him from Grabbing Receivers: “That’s Cap”
Davison Igbinosun says the story that the former Ohio State cornerback wore oven mitts in practice to prevent him from grabbing receivers was “not true.”
Davison Igbinosun Disputes Claim That He Wore Mitts in Practice to Prevent Him from Grabbing Receivers: “That’s Cap”
Davison Igbinosun wants to set the record straight: He never wore oven mitts to prevent him from grabbing receivers in practice.
As Ohio State looked for ways to help Igbinosun cut down on penalties in 2024, then-defensive coordinator Jim Knowles told reporters that Ohio State had the cornerback wear special gloves in practice to prevent him from grabbing receivers.
“We've got to put the gloves on him so that he can't grab,” Knowles said on Oct. 29, 2024.
Four days later, Igbinosun made the signature play of his Ohio State career, stealing the ball out of Penn State receiver Harrison Wallace III’s hands for an interception in the end zone – a seven-point swing just before halftime that played a crucial role in a 20-13 road win for the Buckeyes over the third-ranked Nittany Lions.
That prompted a question at Ohio State’s press conference the following Tuesday about whether “the mitts” worked, to which Knowles replied, “Absolutely,” creating the folklore that Igbinosun wore gloves resembling kitchen equipment in practice.
Igbinosun, however, says that never actually happened.
“That's cap. That’s not true,” Igbinosun said after Wednesday’s pro day when asked if he wore “oven mitts” in practice. “I don’t know who made that up, I think it was Jim Knowles … I’ve seen that narrative, but I came back to change the narrative.”

Ole Miss QB Trinidad Chambliss cleared to play in 2026 after Mississippi Supreme Court denies NCAA appeal
Chambliss has won his bid for another year of eligibility
Trinidad Chambliss is set to play in the 2026 season after a Mississippi Supreme Court judge denied the NCAA's appeal of his preliminary injunction on Friday. That means the Rebels' quarterback has defeated the NCAA in his fight for another year of eligibility.
The legal battle started after Chambliss, coming off a breakout campaign with Ole Miss in 2025, petitioned the NCAA for a medical waiver that would give him another year of eligibility. Chambliss argued that -- because respiratory issues forced him to miss the 2022 season at Ferris State -- he should receive a medical redshirt.
The NCAA denied the petition, saying the evidence suggested Ferris State sat Chambliss for "development needs and our team's competitive circumstances."
After the rejection, Chambliss sued the NCAA in Lafayette County Chancery Court, and he was granted a preliminary injunction on Feb. 12. The NCAA then filed an appeal of the injunction, which was denied on Friday.
When the NCAA first submitted its appeal, Chambliss' attorney, Tom Mars, said it was destined to fail. Mars claimed the precedent had already been set in the case of a former West Virginia running back who successfully argued that limiting benefits to players violates federal law.
"Everyone remembers when the NCAA famously appealed to the Supreme Court in the (Shawne) Alston case and got their teeth knocked out by Justice Kavanaugh," Mars told ESPN. "I expect the NCAA to be spitting Chiclets in this appeal as well."
