Penn State linebacker Dom DeLuca and running back Cam Wallace will miss Saturday's game against Illinois due to injuries sustained in last week's win over Kent State. Their absences further deplete the Nittany Lions' depth at two key positions.
Penn State linebacker Dom DeLuca and running back Cam Wallace are out for Saturday night's game against Illinois , affecting the Nittany Lions' depth at two positions and adding to the growing the list of sidelined players.
DeLuca's absence impacts a defense already dealing with injuries. The Nittany Lions are without starting safety KJ Winston, whom Franklin has said is out with a "long-term" injury, and several potential contributors, including defensive lineman Zuriah Fisher and linebacker Keon Wylie. Offensively, Wallace had won the role of No. 3 running back and looked sharp against Kent State in his largest workload to date. He ran nine times for 39 yards and a touchdown against the Golden Flashes. Wallace played in Penn State's first three games, rushing 18 times for 66 yards and a touchdown.
