Penn State football doesn’t stop Saturday — there are plenty of Nittany Lions playing on Sundays and Monday nights, too.
Twenty-four Penn State alumni are currently on active NFL rosters, four are on injured reserve, and another five earned practice roster spots. So, every week at the Centre Daily Times, we’ll highlight some of those players, whether it’s top plays, top performances, or however we can best sum up PSU’s NFL showing.
After Week 2, we’re looking at the top performers, ranked from 1-5. Take a look:
1. TE Jesse James, Pittsburgh Steelers
It may have been a day to forget for the Steelers, who fell 42-37 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
