2022: Flowers redshirted his first Penn State season, playing in two games.
Last year: Flowers played in four games, being used primarily on special teams. He assisted in a pair of tackles.
Where he stands: Flowers came to Penn State with the ability to play defense or offense. This season, he’s playing the latter. Penn State’s receiving room was the team’s weakpoint in 2023. Flowers could help things be better in 2024, which would be a big shot in the arm.
