After seeing departures from Ryan Bates and Connor McGovern over the last few days, Penn State finally received some good news on Saturday as offensive guard Steven Gonzalez announced that he would be returning to Penn State for his redshirt senior season.
With Gonzalez now back in the fold, Penn State will have three starters returning on the 2019 offensive line with, with Will Fries and Michal Menet joining Gonzalez. Between the trio, they account for 60 starts over the last three seasons, which is a pretty solid number when you consider that the Nittany Lions are losing two three-year starters in Bates and McGovern.
