Elsdon is entering his fifth season with the program and is one of the Nittany Lions' most experienced defenders with 39 career games played including each of the 26 games over the past two seasons.
The Frackville, Pennsylvania native is coming off a season in which he recorded 21 tackles including one tackle for loss, a fumble recovery, and two pass breakups. For his career with the Nittany Lions, the former three-star prospect has 77 total tackles, four tackles for loss, one sack, and three pass deflections.
Coming out of North Schuylkill High School in Ashland, Elsdon was a top-10 prospect in the state of Pennsylvania and committed to the Nittany Lions over offers from over 20 FBS and FCS programs including Louisville, Maryland, Vanderbilt, Virginia, and West Virginia.
This upcoming season, Elsdon will likely be the Nittany Lions' second-string middle linebacker behind Kobe King as well as key special teams contributor.
