Penn State Pride runs deep in Jonathan Stewart and his family. His father and both sisters are Penn Staters and Jonathan is on schedule to earn his degree in industrial engineering in December. This past spring, the coaching staff asked Stewart to move from defensive end to tight end and he jumped at the opportunity to help the team and try to earn additional playing time at a position that lost its top two players from 2009. Stewart is a hard worker who has made good strides in his transition to the offense.
