Deion Barnes is having one helluva day, folks.

Class of 2026 four-star edge rusher Daniel Jennings has committed to Penn State football, he announced Wednesday. Jennings committed to the Nittany Lions just hours after class of 2025 three-star defensive lineman Yvan Kemajou made the same pledge.

A native of Princeton, West Virginia, Jennings is ranked as the No. 23 edge rusher in the nation and the second-best player in his home state, per the 247Sports Composite rankings. Jennings was the first defensive commit to a Penn State recruiting group ranked No. 4 in the country by the same metric.

Jennings plays his high school ball for Princeton High School and chose Penn State over West Virginia. To see what he can bring to the Nittany Lions, check out Jennings’ Hudl profile here.
