Lions DB coming back
UNIVERSITY PARK — One of Penn State’s best defensive players is bypassing a chance to enter the NFL Draft.
Pittsburgh native Jaquan Brisker, a third-team All-Big Ten selection at safety, confirmed Monday on Twitter that he’ll be back with the Nittany Lions in 2021.
Brisker finished third on the team with 57 tackles and three tackles for loss. He led the Nits with six pass breakups.
He had previously accepted an invitation to play in the Senior Bowl.
