Penn State is set to add an offensive lineman to its roster in 2022.

Cornell transfer Hunter Nourzad announced that he would join the Nittany Lions in a Monday afternoon post on Twitter.

Norzad was an Football Championship Subdivision All-American right tackle for the Big Red. He was additionally selected as a second-team American Football Coaches Association.

The 6-foot-4, 298-pound offensive lineman has two more years of eligibility. He will add to a line that lost left tackle Rasheed Walker and center Mike Miranda. Nourzad will most likely compete for the starting right tackle position with redshirt junior Caedan Wallace and incoming freshman Drew Shelton.
