After showing flashes in 2025 but never receiving enough playing time to showcase his talents, Howard finally put the college football world on notice with his 161-yard, one-touchdown performance against Marshall on Saturday.
He scored the inaugural touchdown of the Matt Campbell era after wiggling free in the middle of the hashes and taking a 42-yard catch to the house.
His touchdown wasn’t even his most impressive play of the game. Howard mossed Marshall defensive back Brayden Hall in the third quarter.
Howard’s game also earned him a 95.6 PFF grade, which is the highest ever for a Penn State wideout in the PFF era. He and Rutgers wide receiver KJ Duff were the only Big Ten receivers to make PFF’s squad for Week 1.
