Penn State is known for having one of the largest alumni networks in the world, and that’s even visible in the NFL. 32 Nittany Lions have made their way into NFL training camps, and whether this will be their first year or 11th, they’re all looking forward to trying to crack rosters and getting the season underway.

In addition to 32 players, 10 Penn Staters are a part of NFL coaching staffs, including three running back coaches. Among the NFL’s 21 teams that feature a Penn State player, the Jacksonville Jaguars’ four leads the league, while eight other teams each have two.

Seven of the Lions trying to make NFL rosters are rookies: Adrian Amos (Chicago), Brad Bars (NY Giants), Mike Hull (Miami), Deion Barnes (NY Jets), Miles Dieffenbach (Pittsburgh), Jesse James (Pittsburgh) and Donovan Smith (Tampa Bay). Including the most recent draft class, Penn State has produced 39 NFL Draft picks since 2006, 17 of whom were selected in the first three rounds. Tragically, all NFL teams remain Ficken-less, at least for now.

While some of the players are fresh faces straight out of college, the majority are more battle-hardened and more experienced. Chicago Bears All-Pro kicker Robbie Gould is the eldest of the group, as he’s entering his 11th season in the league. Right behind him is Tamba Hali — a ten-year veteran and All-Pro linebacker for the Kansas City Chiefs. They’re followed by eight-year veteran Jacksonville linebacker Paul Posluszny and seven-year pros Jordan Norwood, a Denver Broncos wide receiver, and Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake.
