The Nittany Lions defensive line received a massive boost on Tuesday when senior defensive tackle PJ Mustipher announced that he would be using his extra year of eligibility to return to Penn State for the 2022 season.
Mustipher has been a steady contributor for his entire career at Penn State, but he really took his game to the next level in 2021. Unfortunately, while in the middle of a career season, Mustipher went down with a season-ending knee injury against Iowa — which, as a reminder, the Iowa fans boo’d and Kirk Ferentz had no particular issue with.
