As Penn State Football continues preparations for the Peach Bowl later this month, several Nittany Lions stars have at least one eye trained on their NFL future.
Penn State tight end Theo Johnson and defensive end Chop Robinson have already declared for the NFL Draft.
Meanwhile, just beyond bowl season, the college football all-star game circuit is about to get underway, and Nittany Lions cornerback Johnny Dixon is heading to one of the biggest showcases of them all.
Dixon, Wednesday, accepted an invite to the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala.

During the 2023 regular season, Dixon has played in All 10 games for the Nittany Lions, posting 21 tackles (16 solo) with one interception, three pass breakups, four tackles for loss, and three sacks.
Hardy is the latest addition of the Penn State Football secondary to offer up the kind of strong performance through the course of his career that bolsters the Nittany Lions’ reputation as a destination for elite and even NFL caliber talent at the position.
The Senior Bowl is slated to kickoff at 1p.m. on February 3.
