Going into the 2025 football season, Nittany Lions Wire will examine each player listed on the Penn State roster. Over the preseason, each profile will cover the player’s background, how recruiting websites rated them coming out of high school, and what role they will play for James Franklin this season.
Offensive tackle Drew Shelton quickly established himself at Penn State, starting five games as a true freshman. In 2023, he played behind first-round NFL draft pick Olu Fashanu but regained the starting role last season, serving as a reliable blindside protector for quarterback Drew Allar. Heading into 2025, Shelton has the potential to earn All-Big Ten honors and could solidify his status as a top draft prospect with another strong season.
