Penn State Football: Jason Cabinda set for big second season

One of the well-known recent members of Penn State football’s “Linebacker U” in Oakland Raiders backer Jason Cabinda is moving up quickly in the NFL. The 2018 undrafted free agent found his home in Oakland and managed to make the team, a major accomplishment in itself. But, he was far from satisfied. The top-10 all-time leader in tackles at Penn State jumped on the field for the final 10 games and recorded 21 tackles (14 solo stops).

Cabinda started three of those contests and instantly became an overachiever in last year’s rookie class. Pro Football Focus didn’t rank him out as an official starter because of his limited snaps.
