Penn State Football Defensive Tackle Zane Durant Returning For 2025
Penn State football defensive tackle Zane Durant will return to Penn State for the 2025 season, he announced Saturday on Twitter.
The junior finished the 2024 season with 42 total tackles, 11 tackles for loss, and three sacks.
“I’m thankful for all my teammates. I’m thankful for coach Barnes and coach Allen,” Durant wrote. “I want to thank my pop and mom for helping me through the process. I thank the Lord for guiding me. With that being said, Penn State, I’m coming back.”
Durant started in all 16 games this season and was a big piece of Deion Barnes’ defensive line group that was one of the best in the nation. Alongside him, Dvon J-Thomas and Coziah Izzard are out of eligibility and won’t return next year.
Fellow defensive lineman Dani Dennis-Sutton has yet to announce his future plans while Abdul Carter announced on Friday that he will enter the NFL Draft.
