James Franklin said earlier this spring that he hoped to add a wide receiver or two from the transfer portal. After securing Florida State transfer George Campbell in February, the Nittany Lions picked up a second pass-catcher on Saturday night: Weston Carr, a Division II All-American from Azusa Pacific.

In three years at Azusa Pacific, the newest Nittany Lion impressed. Carr — the brother of Austin Carr, Northwestern’s former first-team All-Big Ten wideout — recorded 167 receptions for 3,005 yards and 36 touchdowns at the D-II level.
