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.
Offensive lineman Eagan Boyer quickly found the field as a true freshman, appearing in four games while maintaining his redshirt status. His size and physicality are key traits that allowed him to earn snaps in a deep position room loaded with talented upperclassmen. Here’s a preview of Boyer heading into the 2025 season.
Preseason Player Profile
Hometown: Cornelius, North Carolina
Height: 6-8
Weight: 290 lb
Class in 2025: Redshirt freshman
Recruiting Rankings
Class of 2024: Consensus 3-star recruit, No. 45 offensive tackle per 247Sports
Boyer may not have had the recruiting status of some of his peers, but he held offers from Clemson, Michigan, Florida, Tennessee and others during his recruitment.
Depth Chart Overview
Penn State’s depth is deep at offensive tackle, returning three players who started five or more games last season (Drew Shelton, Nolan Rucci, Anthony Donkoh). While the starting roles are seemingly locked up, Boyer can work his way into the two-deep in 2025 and play meaningful snaps. He missed the Blue-White Game while wearing a sling on his arm, but he’ll likely be healthy in time for the season.
