You can scratch one quarterback off the list as a potential 2025 draft pick.
Drew Allar announced on Monday that he will return to Penn State next season for his senior year.
Allar, who turns 21 in March, could have declared for the draft as he’s coming to the end of his junior season with the Nittany Lions.
“This season has been the most fun I’ve ever had in my entire life playing football and I’m so proud of what we’ve accomplished as a team,” Allar said in his announcement released on social media. “I know there’s still more work to do, which is why I look forward to making more memories with my teammates this year and beyond. But right now we are solely focused on the opportunity we have as a team in front of us.”
By returning to Penn State, Allar will potentially be one of the top quarterbacks available in the 2026 draft.
In 13 games so far this season, Allar has completed 69.1 percent of his throws for 2,894 yards with 21 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He’s also rushed for 279 yards with six TDs.
Allar will have at least one more high-profile game in 2024, as No. 6 seed Penn State will host No. 11 SMU in the first round of the College Football Playoff on Saturday afternoon.
