AM LEAVING: QB Drew Allar threaten to leave Penn State if nothing is done about this!
The NFL Scouting Combine is underway in Indianapolis and the Penn State Nittany Lions have five players in attendance. While superstars Abdul Carter and Tyler Warren aren’t participating in the drills, Kevin Winston Jr. Jaylen Reed, and Kobe King will be busy trying to boost their draft stock.
If a quick 40-yard dash won’t do it, then maybe this brief sales pitch will. Here’s the No. 1 selling point for all five Penn State football players at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine.
Carter has insane speed off the edge and in his only season as a full-time defensive end, he used it to generate 66 quarterback pressures, 13 sacks, and 23.5 tackles for loss. With his background as an off-ball linebacker, Carter is impressive in coverage and thrived as a spy for mobile quarterbacks, but his superpower is his speed off the edge.
After suffering an injury in the CFP quarterfinal win over Boise State at the Fiesta Bowl, Carter played the CFP semifinal with one arm and still racked up eight pressures and a sack against Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl.
If he only took snaps at tight end in 2024, Tyler Warren would still be a surefire first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, but Warren did some of his best work as a wildcat quarterback on short-yardage runs and he even threw a touchdown pass.
Warren is an absurd athlete at his monstrous size and he can do everything on the offensive side of the ball. If you want a traditional tight end, Warren is your guy, but with the right play-caller, Warren could be the ultimate offensive chess piece.
