Penn State star defender Abdul Carter wasted little time in making his NFL Draft decision following his team’s elimination from the College Football Playoff.
Carter announced his plans to enter the 2025 NFL Draft on Friday. The standout defensive end also quickly hired top agent Drew Rosenhaus to represent him.

Carter figures to be one of the first players off the board in April’s draft. He collected 12 sacks for the Nittany Lions this season, including one in the team’s CFP semi-final loss to Notre Dame on Thursday night. He has drawn comparisons to Micah Parsons, another former Penn State edge rusher who has dominated in the NFL.
There is certainly no doubting Carter’s attitude. He has a legitimate chance to be the No. 1 pick, or at least go in the top five, in April.
