RB
Senior (NFL Draft)
Declared for 2026 NFL Draft. Scored a career-high 14 TDs in 2025. Suffered broken foot at Senior Bowl (Jan 2026).
The legacy of No. 10 is complete. Nick Singleton declared for the 2026 NFL Draft after a career that saw him redefine the running back standard at Penn State. A Gatorade National Player of the Year and Rose Bowl MVP, Singleton finished his career with over 3,000 rushing yards. In his final season (2025), he evolved into a gritty, red-zone threat, scoring a career-high 14 touchdowns despite defenses loading the box. However, he notably suffered a broken foot during Senior Bowl practices in Jan 2026, which sidelined him for the Combine. Scouts view him as a Day 2 NFL lock with "elite burst" and improved pass protection.
After returning for his senior season, star running back Nicholas Singleton must now carry the load for an offense that has lost its quarterback and head coach in the same week.
