Penn State OL Connor McGovern Declares For The NFL Draft

Offensive lineman Connor McGovern will forgo his senior season at Penn State and will enter the NFL Draft. McGovern announced the news following Penn State’s 27-24 loss to Kentucky in the VRBO Citrus Bowl.

McGovern has been a big part of Penn State’s offensive line since he stepped on campus in January of 2016. The Larksville, PA, native will finish his career as a three-year starter for the Nittany Lions.

As a true freshman in 2016, McGovern started at right guard for a Nittany Lions squad that finished 11-3 and captured a Big Ten Championship. After starting at center in 2017, he moved back to right guard this past season. McGovern was a member of the Big Ten’s all-freshman team in 2016, and was third team all-conference this season. He has the ability to play center or guard at the next level, and some mock drafts over the summer projected McGovern as a first round pick.

We wish Connor all the best as he prepares for the next step of his journey.
