Former Penn State Offensive Lineman TJ Shanahan Jr. Commits to Join Coach Trautwein at University of Florida
Former Penn State football offensive lineman TJ Shanahan Jr. has committed to join his former coach Phil Trautwein at the University of Florida. Shanahan, who started five games for Penn State this season, announced his commitment on social media. He expressed gratitude to Nittany Nation, Coach Franklin, Coach Trautwein, and his teammates before deciding to enter the transfer portal. Shanahan will bring his experience and skills to the Gators' offensive line, reuniting with Trautwein in Gainesville. This move marks the first time a former Nittany Lions player has followed Trautwein since his transition to Florida. Shanahan, who previously played for Texas A&M, will bring his talent and versatility to the Gators' offensive line, adding depth and experience to the team. The Nittany Lions' offensive line is now led by Ryan Clanton, who has brought in several former Iowa State linemen to join the team for the upcoming season. The addition of Shanahan to the Gators' roster will strengthen their offensive line and provide valuable experience and leadership.
