Seven former Penn State football players signed free-agent deals after the 2026 NFL Draft, meaning 15 players from the 2025 Nittany Lions team will get chances to make NFL rosters.

Eight fomer Nittany Lions were selected during the three-day draft, led by first-round pick Olaivavega Ioane in the first round to Baltimore. The Ravens then inked rookie deals with two more Nittany Lions, both of whom were team captains.
