EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Jets picked tackle Olumuyiwa "Olu" Fashanu with the 11th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Fashanu only allowed one sack in 29 games for Penn State. He was named team MVP in 2023.

Fashanu was Penn State's first consensus All-American offensive lineman since 1995.
Jets general manager Joe Douglas described Fashanu as a "proven pass protector."
"I feel like he can really develop and become an impact player for us moving forward," said Douglas.
Fashanu, 21, grew up in Waldorf, Maryland and said he made good on a promise to his mother to finish his college education before entering the NFL Draft.
