Former Penn State football wide receiver Josiah Brown is transferring to Long Island, the team announced on Monday. He has three years of eligibility remaining.

Brown did not record a stat with Penn State over the last two seasons. He missed the entire 2025 season with a long-term injury. He committed to the Nittany Lions as the No. 2 player in New York, No. 57 wide receiver, and No. 365 player in the class of 2024, per 247Sports’ Composite rankings.

The Malvern High School product racked up 589 all-purpose yards and eight touchdowns as a senior and 452 yards and eight touchdowns as a junior.

Brown is the seventh former Penn State wideout to find a new home out of the transfer portal. He is also the fourth Nittany Lion to transfer to an FCS school, joining Bekkem Kritza (Alabama A&M), Brady O’Hara (Monmouth), and Aaron Enterline (Towson).
