Logs two TDs in big win Cephas hauled in six of seven targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 51-15 victory over Maryland.

Impact Cephas finally showed up on the stat sheet after an extremely unimpressive start to his time in Happy Valley. The Kent State transfer was expected to be an impact playmaker for Penn State's passing offense with new starting quarterback Drew Allar. Instead, he never caught more than two passes through the first eight games, tallying just 146 rushing yards over that period. Cephas finally looked like one of the team's go-to pass catchers Week 10, as he tallied the second-most targets behind wideout KeAndre Lambert-Smith (12) and Tyler Warren (eight). Cephas also caught two of the four passing touchdowns from Allar on Saturday. The Nittany Lions will likely need Cephas to make an impact once again in order to beat conference heavyweight Michigan in Week 11.
