McGloin, who broke school records for career touchdowns and the single-season passing recording, both previously held by Daryll Clark, during his final season as a Nittany Lion. In December, he was honored with the Burlsworth Trophy, which recognizes players who began their collegiate football career as walk-ons.
Details of McGloin’s contract are not yet known. McGloin will be joining former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor on the Raiders. Perhaps he’s heard of him by now.
