Like most true freshman— especially at a winning programs like Penn State— Kenny Woseley didn’t play much in 2024.
Being in a CB room that featured players such as A.J. Harris, Jalen Kimber and Cam Miller, it was difficult for Woseley to see much action.
But toward the end of the regular season, Woseley started to show up in the box score.
Against Purdue Nov. 16, he had three tackles. Two weeks later, in the regular-season finale against Maryland at Beaver Stadium, he had two more.
Now, Woseley is another year older. Will that increased experience lead to a bigger role in the secondary?

As a senior, he helped Imhotep to a perfect 15-0 record and state championship. He ended that season with 23 tackles, six interceptions and seven pass breakups. The year before, he had 20 tackles, five tackles for loss, a sack, two fumble recoveries, 10 pass breakups, a punt block and two touchdowns.
A four-star recruit, Woseley committed to Penn State in March 2023.
Last year: Woseley played in four games as a true freshman, posting the aforementioned stats against Purdue and Maryland.
Where he stands: Even with Kimber gone, Penn State still has a strong CB room, with Harris at the forefront. To get playing time, Woseley will have to compete with players such as Elliot Washington, Audavion Collins and true freshman Daryus Dixson.
A quote by Woseley: “I think my physicality, my IQ and my technique. I think that those three things at corner are the biggest because you have to react to certain things, and if you don’t react on time, bad stuff can happen. Just watching a lot of film, watching stuff that happens in college football and the NFL. Being a student of the game.” — Woseley to Nittany Sports Now in December 2023
A quote about Woseley: “He’s super versatile. Also, he’s very coachable. There’s not a lot of kids in this game, at this young age, that are coachable. Kenny is the type of player who can make a mistake and forget about it. It’s on to the next play, the next play he’ll be greater than the last… and he’s a leader.” — Former Imhotep and current Penn State teammate Tyseer Denmark
