Bayville (NJ) Central Regional High edge rusher Elijah Reeder has committed to Penn State.

The disruptive edge rusher originally signed with head coach Matt Campbell and Iowa State. Once Campbell left Ames for Happy Valley, that put the process in motion for the 6-foot-6, 210-pound Reeder to stay closer to home and follow.

Tabbed by the Rivals Industry as the nation’s No. 53 edge and No. 9 overall prospect in New Jersey, Reeder had a terrific senior season registering 50 tackles including 19 stops for loss and eight sacks. He also forced a fumble.

Reeder also had six rushing touchdowns and has the traits to ultimately become one of the Big Ten’s top pass rushers.

The Penn State 2026 class is quickly growing with Reeder the latest to join the fold. A look at who else is set to play for Campbell and the Nittany Lions here.
