Penn State Football grades and MVP from Nittany Lions’ win over Maryland

Ji’Ayir Brown

Grade: B

Safety Ji’Ayir Brown has the pick six that sealed the game for the Nittany Lions but he was solid all afternoon.

Brown led the team in tackles with nine and was solid in pass coverage with his running mate Jaquan Brisker, not allowing the defense to get beat over the top a single time.

Brown felt due for a big moment and it came when they were up 10, while the Terps were driving deep into Penn State Football territory to cut into the lead when he jumped in front of a crossing route and took it down the sideline the other way for six.

TheLackawanna boys, him and Brisker, both put on a great showing. Franklin may need to build a fence around that community college making sure he loses no talent from there to any other school.
