2020: Wormley played in three games, being used mostly on special teams.
2021: Didn’t play due to injury.
2022: Wormley started all 13 games at right guard, earning unanimous All-Big Ten Honorable Mention honors.
Where he stands: Wormley’s position at right guard is secure. The biggest question is who will play by him on the right side. Wormley’s classmate, Caedan Wallace, and second-year OL Drew Shelton are battling for the starting right tackle spot.
A quote by Wormley: “I’m a nasty player. I’m stern.” — A chuckling Wormley to Lions247 at Penn State’s 2022 media day.
A quote about Wormley: “He has really good feet. He can bend really well. He’s strong. He’s not the biggest guard we have, but he’s physical and strong, which then puts him in a really good place because he’s athletic and he’s strong, and he can move. I love who he is.” — Penn State offensive line coach Phil Trautwein to Lions247 at the same media day.
