Koby Howard sidelined for at least two more weeks for Penn State
Summary

Penn State's star wide receiver Koby Howard will remain out for a minimum of two weeks due to injury. Head coach Matt Campbell indicated that Howard’s absence will be felt against two tough opponents, including the 19th ranked Trojans during the White Out game. Howard was previously a key player for Penn State, ranking seventh in the nation in receiving yards before his injury. His continued absence could hinder the Nittany Lions as they struggle in Big Ten play with an 0-2 record so far this season.
