While some programs may play some offseason gimmicks of forcing players to earn their jersey number or a helmet decal, Penn State doesn’t mess around with such uniform motivations. And on Friday, Penn State confirmed the jersey numbers to be worn by every incoming freshman or transfer player being added to the roster this fall.
Penn State has already given some new players an official jersey number, including those who enrolled early and participated in spring football. But a couple of new additions to the program this summer now have their official jersey numbers as well.
Here’s a look at the official jersey numbers for a number of the newest Nittany Lions;
- No. 4 – CB Kalen King
- No. 6 – CB Zakee Wheatley
- No. 7 – S Jaylen Reed
- No. 9 – QB Christian Veilleux
- No. 14 – CB A.J. Lytton
- No. 17 – TE Khalil Dinkins
- No. 18 – DE Davon Townley Jr.
- No. 24 – CB Jeffrey Davis Jr.
- No. 28 – LB Dominic Deluca
- No. 41 – LB Kobe King
- No. 42 – LB Jamari Buddin
- No. 52 – DT Jordan Van Den Berg
- No. 58 – OL Landon Tengwall
- No. 68 – OL Eric Wilson
- No. 82 – WR Liam Clifford
- No. 85 – WR Harrison Wallace III
