Curran joins fellow Rams Joshua Nindl as the second lineman commit from the team to the Panthers, the recent graduate announcing his decision as a PWO on May 25th. Additionally, Lincoln Hoke, a 3-star defensive line recruit from rival North Allegheny announced his commitment to the team June 6th. He is also the second Rams player in the class of 2026 to commit to a Power 4 FBS school after 4-star cornerback Jay Timmons committed to Indiana University on April 28th. Curran is currently a 3-star recruit on 247 Sports, the site listing him as Pennsylvania’s 48th best interior offensive lineman recruit.
Curran contributed to a strong Rams line in their 2024 campaign, playing left guard in an offense that relied heavily on the run game and won the WPIAL 5A championship. He was rewarded with a selection to PaFootballNews’ 1st Team All-State; along with 8 Division 1 offers including Marshall, Coastal Carolina, and Ohio.
