Penn State sophomore wide receiver Richy Anderson will seek a transfer, sources confirmed to Lions247 this week. The 5-foot-11, 175-pound slot receiver played as a true freshman last season for the Nittany Lions, catching 13 balls for 111 yards in 11 games played.

Anderson split reps in the slot with freshman early-enrollee DeAndre Thompkins in the spring.

The Frederick (Md.) Thomas Johnson alum was an all-area pick as a running back in high school. He originally committed to Maryland, but flipped to the Nittany Lions when they offered in the fall of 2012.Â

He is the son of former Penn State running back Richie Anderson, who is 18th all-time in rushing yards at the school.
