Trebor Pena - Best day yet in PSU uniform Pena hauled in 5 of 7 targets for 100 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 22-10 victory over Clemson.
Impact Pena saved his best for last at Penn State, eclipsing the 100-yard mark for the first time and scoring what was just his second touchdown of the season. The senior wideout appears to be out of eligibility, and he is now likely to look towards the NFL. Pena's best season came in 2024 with Syracuse, when he reeled in 84 catches for 941 yards and nine touchdowns.

Devonte Ross - Eight receptions, two carries Ross tallied eight receptions (on 12 targets) for 84 yards during Saturday's 22-10 win against Clemson.
Impact Ross updated his season-high in receptions and logged his first carries of 2025. For the year, he recorded 36 receptions with 501 yards (on 50 targets) and five touchdowns.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Andrew Rappleyea - Breaks plane once again Rappleyea hauled in 5 of 6 targets for 18 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 22-10 victory over Clemson.
Impact Rappleyea found the end zone for the third straight game, a strong way to close out the tight end's redshirt sophomore season. Now slated to return to Happy Valley, he should be one of the Nittany Lions' top tight ends next fall. He finishes 2025 with 20 catches for 180 yards and three scores.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Quinton Martin Jr. - Breaks out during bowl Martin compiled 20 carries for 101 yards and reeled in 1 of 2 targets for negative four yards during Saturday's 22-10 victory against Clemson.
Impact For the entirety of Penn State's 2025 regular season, Martin's lone stats came from kick returns he logged in Week 10 at Ohio State. But with the Nittany Lions not having Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen, they relied on Martin, and their selection paid off in full. Martin had the type of game to earn a top role, but whether or not he chooses to re-enroll at Penn State is where his next decision lies.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Ethan Grunkemeyer - Leads PSU to bowl win Grunkemeyer was 23-for-34 passing for 262 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 22-10 victory versus Clemson.
Impact Grunkemeyer saved arguably the best outing of his 2025 season for the final game, a Pinstripe Bowl win over Clemson. He tossed for two touchdowns and once again didn't turn the ball over, his fourth straight game in which he's protected the football. All told, Grunkemeyer finished the year with 1,341 passing yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions, and he should be in the mix for the Nittany Lions' starting quarterback gig next fall.

Kyron Hudson - Suffers knee injury Hudson suffered a knee injury during Saturday's bowl game with Clemson, Audrey Snyder of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hudson did not log any counting stats before his exit. The wide receiver, in the midst of his senior season, is trying to improve upon his 23 receptions for 288 yards and two touchdowns for 2025.
DECEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kaytron Allen - Out for bowl game Allen (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game with Clemson, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.
Impact Allen out for Penn State's upcoming bowl indicates that his collegiate career has finished. During 2024 and 2025, he logged at least 200 carries, 1,000 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns. 2025 saw an improved Allen, who recorded 210 rushing attempts for 1,303 yards and 15 touchdowns, the latter two his career-highs, showcasing his increased efficiency with fewer opportunities.
DECEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Bekkem Kritza - Can play Clemson Kritza (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game with Clemson.
Impact Kritza gives Penn State an additional quarterback to work with behind Ethan Grunkemeyer. The former, a 6-foot-5, 199-pound freshman, has yet to log any counting stats in 2025.
DECEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Jabree Coleman - Available for bowl game Coleman (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game with Clemson.
Impact Coleman has yet to log any stats in 2025. He is a 6-foot, 212-pound freshman running back, giving Penn State's team an extra option to work with should PSU not have Kaytron Allen (undisclosed) available.
DECEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kaytron Allen - Questionable for bowl game Allen (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game with Clemson.
Impact Allen is a surprise addition to Penn State's availability report, and its only one with a questionable tag despite many Lions players opting out for bowl action. Saturday would be the running back's last game, and his overall production can help mitigate the Lions' big losses, so him potentially sitting out against Clemson is a significant development.
