Penn State Football head coach James Franklin says the Nittany Lions could be getting cornerback Tariq Castro-Fields back in the lineup Saturday against Michigan State

Penn State Football’s defense could get a significant boost in Saturday’s game against the Michigan State Spartans.

Cornerback Tariq Castro-Fields has not played a game since getting injured in last month’s loss to the Maryland Terrapins, but Penn State Football head coach James Franklin said this week that the second-year starter could return for the regular season finale this weekend.
