Penn State Football: Post-Draft Free Agency Tracker

The NFL Draft wrapped up on Saturday evening following a three-day, seven-round event. When it was all said and done eight Nittany Lions heard their names called, tying the most under James Franklin and two shy of tying a program record set back in 1996.

Headlining Penn State’s appearances in the draft are offensive tackle Olu Fashanu, selected No. 11 overall by the New York Jets, and defensive end Chop Robinson, picked up at No. 21 by the Miami Dolphins.

With the draft now over, teams are free to invite players to mini-camp, as well as sign deals with undrafted free agents. Here are the Nittany Lions who have done so thus far.

Trey Potts: Penn State running back Trey Potts picked up a mini camp invite from the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. He will join center Hunter Nourzad, who was drafted in the fifth round, and linebacker Curtis Jacobs, who signed an undrafted free agent deal with the Chiefs. Potts saw limited action while at Penn State, mostly a product of being behind Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen on the Nittany Lions’ depth chart, but did manage three touchdowns on 29 total touches over the course of the season. Potts came to Penn State after four years at Minnesota, where he recorded nine touchdowns and nearly 1,200 yards rushing over the previous two seasons.

Curtis Jacobs: The former Penn State linebacker signed an undrafted free agent deal with the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. He will join fifth round draft pick in center Hunter Nourzad as well as running back Trey Potts who received a mini camp invite. Jacobs was projected by some to be drafted over the course of the seven-round event but was ultimately passed over until after the process concluded. Jacobs left Penn State having totaled 171 total tackles, two interceptions and four fumble recoveries. He posted a career-high in tackles for a loss his final season in State College with nine.

Keaton Ellis: The State College native and longtime Penn State safety signed an undrafted free agent deal with the Tennessee Titans on Saturday after five years with the program. Ellis leaves Penn State having recorded 85 total tackles and one interception. Ellis, for the most, part saw the most action in his final two seasons at Penn State, making appearances in all 26 games over that span. Injuries and overall team depth slowed his contributions in the earlier stages of his career.
