Penn State could have a key defender return to the field as the Nittany Lions take on Maryland on Saturday.
Before the team’s arrival at Beaver Stadium, linebacker Curtis Jacobs was seen running up and down the field during early warmups for the Week 11 contest. The LB exited last week’s game against Indiana after only 8 snaps due to an undisclosed injury and was unavailable to the press at Wednesday’s practice.
