Penn State Football offensive line

Left Tackle

#1 – Olu Fashanu

#2 – Landon Tengwall

#3 – Jimmy Christ

Left Guard

#1 – Landon Tengwall

#2 – Hunter Nourzad

#3 – JB Nelson

Center

#1 – Juice Scruggs

#2 – Nick Dawkins

#3 – Bryce Effner

Right Guard

#1 – Sal Wormley

#2 – Hunter Nourzad

#3 – JB Nelson

Right Tackle

#1 – Caedan Wallace

#2 – Jimmy Christ

#3 – Drew Shelton

Both tackle spots and center have been pretty much a given for months now, with Olu Fashanu and Caedan Wallace out on the edge and Juice Scruggs in the middle. If Fashanu were to go down with an injury at left tackle, Landon Tengwall would likely slide out to replace him, with Jimmy Christ being an option at either of the two tackle positions as well.

Guard has been one of the major position battles of the offseason with a three-way competition between Sal Wormley, Landon Tengwall, and Hunter Nourzad. As a projected starter last year, Wormley should solidify one guard spot, with Tengwall and his upside taking over the other. Nourzad likely won’t be far behind either of them though, as he can step up in the event of injury or poor performance by one of the starters.
