CB Josh Moten

Another member of the 2020 class was 4-star cornerback Josh Moten from Maryland.

Moten committed to Penn State back in February of 2019 but would decommit that June. The day after his decommitment from Penn State, Moten officially visited Texas A&M. Less than a month later, he committed to the Aggies.

That June was a brutal stretch for Penn State as you can see from the first two slides.

Moten did not see action as a true freshman in 2020 and also did not see action as a redshirt freshman in 2021. This year, Moten has played in two games for Texas A&M, recording one tackle.

Considering how stacked Penn State’s cornerback group is, this one doesn’t really hurt that much.
