Although No. 6 Penn State has its bye week this week, there are still ways to support your Nittany Lions this weekend; support your PSU Pros!

However, the Nittany Lions will return to action next Saturday at home against UMass. The October 14 tilt with the Minutemen is slated for a 3:30 p.m. start on Big Ten Network.

A total of 40 Penn State football alumni are populating the rosters of 25 National Football League organizations. The Nittany Lions annually rank among the top 20 programs nationally in producing players in the NFL.

In his outstanding effort, Nick Scott posted his second ten-plus tackle game of the season on Sunday, recording ten total stops (9 solo). He currently ranks seventh among safeties in the NFL in total tackles. Micah Parsons picked up another tackle for loss in the Cowboys’ dominant outing against the Patriots, bringing his total to six on the season.

Offensively, Chris Godwin exploded for 114 yards on eight catches in the Buccaneers’ win over the Saints. Jahan Dotson scored his first touchdown of the season in the Commanders’ hard-fought divisional battle with the Eagles. On special teams, Jordan Stout continued to impress as Baltimore’s punter and still ranks in the top 10 in the NFL in yards-per-punt.

Parker Washington made his NFL debut for the Jaguars in their win over the Falcons in London. The Jacksonville wideout returned one punt for five yards in his first game action.
