Drew Allar could have left early for the 2025 NFL draft. Many pegged Penn State’s quarterback as a first-rounder, some as high as a top-10 pick. Instead, Allar decided to return for one more season to continue to develop and headline Penn State’s national title push.
But Allar will certainly be gone this time next year. Regardless of how high he’s projected to be drafted, he’ll run out of college eligibility, head to the NFL and compete for a starting job at the next level. Back in Happy Valley, the Nittany Lions will have to move on.
