Penn State will have the option of using both of their freshman running backs in their season opener. Assistant coach JaJuan Seider has guaranteed that both will see playing time per Ben Jones of StateCollege.com.

Nick Singleton (5-star commit) and Kaytron Allen (4-star commit) both came from the 2022 class per the 247Sports Composite. It makes sense as to why Seider is feeling good about his RB room with those 2 in it.

“I’m just going to tell you — the two freshmen are going to play,” Penn State running backs coach JaJuan Seider said on Wednesday. “I know everybody wants to know that. I’m high on them. I’m very high on them.”

Seider also stated that fans will get to see at least 4 different running backs in the game. He believes that those 4 are the most deserving when it comes to playing time.

“I will guarantee you that you will see four backs playing at some point in this game,” Seider added. “I’m not saying they’re all going to be in the backfield. We have four guys who deserve to play.”
