Penn State football has suffered a significant setback with the announcement that quarterback Drew Allar will miss the remainder of the season due to an injury. This news comes after a closely contested game against Northwestern, where Penn State lost 22-21.
Drew Allar’s Injury Details
During the game, Allar sustained his injury while attempting a 1-yard scramble on a crucial 3rd-and-4 play during the final drive. He showed visible signs of pain as medical staff rushed to his aid on the field. Although he managed to walk off briefly, he ultimately needed assistance and was carted off the field.
Impact on Penn State Football
Allar had previously opted to return for his senior season instead of entering the 2025 NFL Draft, making this injury particularly disheartening for both him and the team. With his senior season now abruptly ended, Allar concludes his collegiate career with impressive statistics.
Career Highlights
- Total passing yards: 7,539
- Total touchdowns: 61
- Total games played: 46
- Rushing yards: 757
- Rushing touchdowns: 13
Unfortunately, Allar is ineligible for a medical redshirt, meaning this season marks the end of his college football journey. His contributions to the team and exciting playing style will be missed as Penn State navigates the remainder of the season without their star quarterback.
