Penn State EDGE Adisa Isaac declares for 2024 NFL Draft
Penn State EDGE Adisa Isaac has declared for the 2024 NFL Draft, he announced via social media. He was a key piece of the Nittany Lions’ defense this season, which ranked No. 1 in the Big Ten.
Isaac could’ve declared for the draft last year, but opted to run it back with Penn State. It paid off as he turned in the best numbers of his career, setting new career highs with 15.0 tackles for loss and 7.5 sacks — leading the Nittany Lions in both categories. That came after 11 TFLs and 4.0 sacks a year ago.
Isaac previously confirmed he planned on playing in the Peach Bowl against Ole Miss. Now, his draft decision is official, as well.
“These have been some of the most remarkable years of my life,” Adisa Isaac wrote. “For five years I have been able to go to work and make lifelong memories with my brothers and this great coaching staff. We’ve competed in front of the best fans in the country, and none of this has ever been taken for granted.
“What a privilege it has been to be able to pursue my academic career as well. And now I can also call myself a graduate of The Pennsylvania State University. … I am excited to share that after the Peach Bowl, I will be declaring for the 2024 NFL Draft. I am extremely excited for this next opportunity that lies ahead for me.”

Players will have the opportunity to solidify their draft stock at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine, to be held in Indianapolis, Indiana from February 26 through March 4.
The three-day event will be broadcasted throughout the weekend on ESPN and NFL Network.
To be eligible for the NFL Draft, players must be at least three years removed from their final year of high school while having used up their collegiate eligibility. Underclassmen are able to request league approval to become eligible for the draft, as are players who have graduated prior to using up all of their collegiate eligibility.
Last season, 69 players were granted special eligibility for the 2023 NFL Draft. 13 underclassmen who had completed their college degrees were also deemed eligible to be selected.
The deadline to declare for the 2024 NFL Draft is on January 15. NFL teams will receive a full list of eligible players in the class on January 19.
