High-achieving Penn State receiver won't play USC on October 10
Koby Howard was a breakout receiver for Penn State in September, but he will miss PSU's game against USC on October 10
Penn State wide receiver Koby Howard will not participate in the team's upcoming game against USC on October 10 due to an injury. Coach Matt Campbell informed On3's Greg Pickle that Howard is likely to be sidelined for an extended period, though not the entire season. Howard has been a standout performer for the Nittany Lions this season, leading the team with 12 receptions for 344 yards and two touchdowns, and adding two carries for 24 yards and another score.
His best game was against Marshall, where he had six receptions for 161 yards and a touchdown, and he had over 100 receiving yards in two of the team's three games this season. Howard, a sophomore, has also contributed as a rusher, making two carries for 24 yards and a touchdown. Despite his impressive season, the 5-foot-11, 203-pounder missed the final game of last year and will be absent from the October 10 matchup against USC.
