Penn State Stars Allen, Singleton, and Allar Returning for 2025 Season

The Nittany Lions retain key offensive players, bolstering their chances for a Big Ten and national title run next year.

Running backs Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton, who both surpassed 1,000 rushing yards in 2024, have announced their return to Penn State for the 2025 season.
Quarterback Drew Allar is also returning, maintaining continuity in the Nittany Lions' experienced and productive backfield.
Allen and Singleton combined for over 2,200 rushing yards and 20 touchdowns last season, leading an offense that ranked first in the Big Ten in rushing yards per game.
Despite retaining key players, Penn State faces challenges in its wide receiver corps, which struggled against top-tier competition in critical games last season.
The Nittany Lions are expected to be strong contenders for the Big Ten title and a College Football Playoff spot in 2025, though improvements at wide receiver remain crucial.
