Karon Brookins Has Been Smoking Defenders Since Day One

Meet Karon Brookins, the 6-foot-5 Penn State wide receiver whose football story has always been driven by family.Brookins looks back on growing up around Philadelphia, being the youngest in a big family and one of his earliest football memories — scoring his first touchdown while his mom ran down the sideline cheering him on. He also shares how football became his path, his relationship with Matt Campbell, the work he has put into taking the next step in his game and why he embraces the pressure that comes with playing at Penn State.Away from football, Brookins talks about his faith, his War Zone squad and the family motivation behind everything he does. With nobody in his family having previously reached the highest levels of college or professional football, Brookins wants to be the first — and leave Penn State remembered for who he was both on and off the field.Presented by PAM Health: https://pamhealth.com/Chapters:00:00 Falling in Love With Football00:39 His First Touchdown with Mom01:02 First Offer01:19 Connecting With Matt Campbell01:27 Taking the Next Step02:02 Faith Away From Football02:16 Call of Duty & Life Off the Field02:31 Becoming the First in His Family02:42 What He Wants His Penn State Legacy to BeFOLLOW STATE MEDIA HERE:► TWITTER | ⁠https://twitter.com/StateMediaPSU⁠► TIKTOK | ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@statemediapsu⁠► INSTAGRAM | ⁠https://www.instagram.com/statemediapsu/⁠► YOUTUBE | ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@StateMediaPSU?sub_confirmation=1⁠► FACEBOOK | https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558183472272#pennstatefootball #weare #happyvalley
