Former Ohio State quarterback Kyle McCord decided to transfer to Syracuse after a lackluster season, avoiding potential benching at Ohio State. The New York Giants criticized McCord's playing ability on a Hard Knocks episode, impacting his NFL draft prospects. Despite this scrutiny, McCord remains focused on leading Syracuse's offense and preparing for his final college season. Giants' wide receivers coach Mike Groh openly criticized McCord's throw during an interview with Marvin Harrison Jr., shedding a negative light on McCord's performance. The spotlight on McCord's subpar play during his time at Ohio State may affect his future prospects as he navigates the NFL draft process and transitions to a new team.
