Mandatory Credit: Rich Barnes-USA TODAY Sports Two Penn State defenders are no longer part of the program or enrolled at the university, Lions247 confirmed Saturday.
Defensive end Jameial Lyons and linebacker Kaveion Keys previously were suspended "to deal with a personal matter," according to a team spokesperson.
The program announced Saturday it had no further comment on Lyons and Keys, neither of whom appeared at Penn State's first open practice of the fall on Wednesday.
Both players were entering their second season with the Nittany Lions.
Lyons tallied six tackles and one sack in eight games as a freshman last year. Keys made one tackle in his only game last September before redshirting his freshman season.
Penn State opens its 2024 campaign at West Virginia on Aug. 31. The Nittany Lions finished 10-3 last season.
