ESPN REPORT: ALLEN ROBINSON II & ADRIAN AMOS GIVE BACK TO PENN STATE WITH MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR ENDOWMENT
In a monumental gesture that speaks volumes about loyalty, legacy, and leadership, former Penn State football stars Allen Robinson II and Adrian Amos have announced a multi-million dollar endowment to support Penn State’s men’s football program. The two NFL standouts, both recognized as elite talents and respected voices in the sport, are now using their success to give back to the program that helped launch their professional careers.
Robinson and Amos, both alumni of the 2011 Penn State squad, have long been regarded as ambassadors for the university and the Nittany Lion brand. Their contributions on the field at both the collegiate and professional levels are well-documented, but this move showcases their commitment to creating long-term impact off the field. According to reports, the endowment is aimed at supporting youth development initiatives, facility enhancements, and academic and athletic resources for current and future Penn State football players.
“Penn State shaped who we are—not just as athletes, but as men,” Robinson said in a joint statement. “We wanted to make sure that future generations have even more opportunities to grow and succeed.”
Adrian Amos echoed the sentiment: “This is about legacy. It’s about building something bigger than ourselves and investing in the culture that raised us. We’re proud to be Nittany Lions, and we want to leave it better than we found it.”
The donation arrives at a pivotal time for the Nittany Lions, as the program continues to push toward national championship contention. Head Coach James Franklin praised the move, calling it “a powerful example of what it means to be a Penn Stater—leadership, selflessness, and giving back.”
With this historic contribution, Robinson and Amos are not only investing in the future of Penn State football—they’re redefining what it means to leave a legacy.
