Only Kolin Dinkins Until Penn State Football

There are two Dinkins on the Penn State roster! While most folks are familiar with Khalil, Kolin has been with the program since 2022, when he redshirted. Kolin is a walk-on that saw most of his playing time on special teams a season ago.

Kolin appeared in 12 games last season, and was awarded the coaching staff’s Developmental Squad Defensive Player of the Week three times last season (against Illinois, UMass, and Michigan). He posted a solo tackle against West Virginia to start the 2023 season.

As the numbers keep getting lower, the excitement keeps ratcheting up.
