Penn State safety Ji'Ayir Brown headed for new role in defense

was still playing coy with the idea of coming back for a final season with the Nittany Lions, though he wasn’t doing a lot to hide the fact that he was. He talked extensively about what he wanted from his next year of football at that time.  One comment, in particular, stood out. “Run fits is where I learned a lot this year. That was a very important to have. That area is where I improved this season and where I need to take my next step now is [to] play behind the line of scrimmage. That’s where I want to go with my next accolade of the game is to get more tackles for loss and be quicker to the ball," Brown said.
