Opposing quarterbacks beware, Penn State football defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos returns for one more year. He’ll have another offseason to prepare and advance his game. Gross-Matos put up a monster year for any player, let alone a sophomore in 2019. He led the defensive line in every major category: total tackles (54), tackles for loss (20) and sacks (eight).
The most impressive part, looking back on 2018, is that it was Gross-Matos‘ first year to see starter-level snaps. In 2017, he jumped into the rotation on a deep, veteran group up front, showing he had something special.
