Kaytron Allen joined fellow junior co-starter Nick Singleton on Monday in announcing his decision to return in 2025. He announced via social media that he will, indeed, play for the Nittany Lions again rather than enter this spring's NFL Draft or transfer to another school to be the feature runner.

Allen led Penn State in carries (220) and rushing yards (1,108) as the two became the first Penn State backs to rush for 1,000 yards in the same season. Both Singleton and Allen, part of the 2022 recruiting class, have talked positively about the position share and its ability to protect their long-term health.

Running back Nick Singleton, who has rushed for almost 3,000 yards, will return to Penn State for the 2025 season, he announced Monday on social media.
