Penn State WR K.J. Hamler Declares for 2020 NFL Draft After Cotton Bowl Win

Penn State wide receiver KJ Hamler announced will forgo his final two years of eligibility and enter the 2020 NFL draft.

Hamler leaves the Nittany Loins having caught 98 passes for 1,658 yards and 13 touchdowns over two seasons.

He arrived in State College as a 4-star recruit but not one of the top wideouts in the 2017 recruiting class. He sat 47th at his position and 323rd overall in 247Sports' composite rankings after missing his senior year at IMG Academy due to a torn ACL.

With DaeSean Hamilton, Mike Gesicki and Saquon Barkley providing serious competition for targets, Hamler redshirted in 2017.
