Going into the 2025 football season, Nittany Lions Wire will examine each player listed on the Penn State roster. Over the preseason, each profile will cover the player’s background, how recruiting websites rated them coming out of high school, and what role they will play for James Franklin this season.
An under-the-radar player for Penn State heading into 2025 is hometown recruit Finn Furmanek, who’ll battle the two other tight ends in his class, as well as Luke Reynolds and Khalil Dinkins, to earn snaps in 2025. He’s played sparignly through two seasons in Happy Valley but can improve his playing time if he progresses this offseason.

Depth Chart Overview
It’ll be tough for Furmanek to carve out snaps in 2025, with Reynolds and Dinkins on pace for the lion’s share. In addition, Andrew Rappleyea and Joey Schlaffer are in the mix and likely slot above Furmanek on the depth chart. Furmanek’s best chance of contributing for the time being may come on special teams.
