In 2015, Penn State had arguably the best defensive line in the Big Ten, and one of the best in the country. However, the Nittany Lions have lost three starters, as Austin Johnson, Anthony Zettel, and Carl Nassib are all pursuing careers at the next level. Needless to say, there will be plenty of reps available across the defensive line this fall. One player I believe that has the potential to breakout this season for the Nittany Lions across on the defensive line this fall is Kamonte Carter.
Defensive end Garrett Sickels is the lone returning starter, and Torrence Brown is in line to anchor down the other defensive end spot.
