Antwan Raymond News, Rumors, Updates - Rutgers Scarlet Knights

Logs 77 yards of total offense Raymond tallied 15 rushes for 56 yards and hauled in their only target for 21 yards during Saturday's 31-10 defeat to Wisconsin.

Impact Raymond found little running room on Saturday, a week after he'd moved the ball well against Michigan. Once Rutgers fell behind in the second half, the game plan moved away from the run, and his carries suffered for it. He's still the lead back and has been one of the Big Ten's more efficient runners. A more competitive game script would bring his numbers back up quickly.

Lone bright spot for Knights in loss Raymond posted 11 rushes for 85 yards and caught 1 of 2 targets for 32 yards during Saturday's 28-21 loss versus Michigan.

Impact Raymond was Rutgers' most effective player against Michigan, breaking off big runs whenever he got the ball, though he didn't get it nearly enough. With the quarterback situation shaky and KJ Duff's (upper body) status uncertain, he should be the focal point of the offense the rest of the way. That will be a tall order Saturday against a Wisconsin run defense that has been one of the Big Ten's best.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Solid line in defeat Raymond compiled 18 rushes for 150 yards and one touchdown and hauled in all two targets for 27 yards during Saturday's 42-14 loss versus Northwestern.

Impact Raymond was one of the few bright spots for Rutgers at Northwestern, running for a season-high 150 yards and the Scarlet Knights' only rushing touchdown. The junior bounced back after two quiet outings against Indiana and Maryland, and he remains the lead back in a committee with Thevenin. He'll have a hard time repeating that production against a Michigan defense that ranks fifth in the Big Ten against the run.

Aidan Chiles throws for 3 TD, runs in 2 more, and No. 24 Northwestern beats Rutgers 42-14

Aidan Chiles threw for three touchdowns for the third time this season and rushed for two others to lead No. 24 Northwestern past Rutgers 42-14 for a fourth straight victory

OCTOBER 24 • Associated Press

Bright spot in bad loss Raymond (undisclosed) logged 18 carries for 150 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 42-14 loss to Northwestern.

Impact Raymond's 18 carries mark his highest in the category since Week 3, and the running back's production may have had to do with Rutgers' starting quarterback Dylan Lonergan (head) being ruled out early. Raymond delivered yet again, most notably by updating his season-high in rushing yards despite Rutgers' overall offense struggling at Northwestern. The junior also logging a touchdown means he has scored five times across his last six games. Raymond will be the Scarlet Knights' most reliable weapon on offense as their schedule progresses.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Participating in warmups Raymond (undisclosed) was observed taking part in pregame warmups ahead of Saturday's game against Northwestern, Brian Fonseca of NJ.com reports.

Impact Raymond has carried a questionable tag throughout the week as he works his way through an undisclosed injury. His participation in warmups bodes well for his chances of playing but more news should surface closer to kickoff.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play barring setback Raymond (undisclosed) is expected to play in Saturday's game at Northwestern barring a setback in pregame warmups, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Raymond appears to be trending toward active status, which would not only overrule his status as a game-time decision but also boost the chances of Rutgers' lead rusher being available. The running back may not have been as sharp in recent Big Ten play, but he has logged at least 10 carries in each of his conference games this season.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision for Saturday Raymond (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game versus Northwestern, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact Raymond hasn't missed a game yet this season for the Scarlet Knights, despite being listed as a game-time call last week as well. It appears a final decision on his status will come during warmups, so it will be worth keeping an eye out. Clay Thevenin figures to handle the lead duties if Raymond can't give it a go.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 8 Raymond (undisclosed) is listed as questionable prior to Saturday's matchup against Northwestern.

Impact After averaging less than 2 yards per carry on 16 attempts last week, Raymond's status for Saturday's affair with the Wildcats is in jeopardy. The running back has 105 rushes for 498 yards and five touchdowns, along with 11 receptions for 101 yards and one touchdown this season.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Not as explosive at Maryland Raymond (undisclosed) logged 16 carries for 29 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-30 win at Maryland. He also recorded two receptions for 29 yards.

Impact Even though Raymond was scheduled against one of the Big Ten Conference's streakiest defenses, as allowing 37 points to Rutgers can attest, he notably struggled to get yardage. The running back failed to average more than 2.0 yards per carry and equaled his rushing yards out wide with just two receptions. Still, Raymond logged a touchdown, and Rutgers' two-man punch of him and Clay Thevenin to keep them afloat the top of the team's running back room.

Duff's incredible catch and a strong 2nd half lift Rutgers over Maryland 37-30

KJ Duff caught two touchdown passes — including one with a spectacular one-handed grab — and Rutgers held on for a 37-30 victory over Maryland

OCTOBER 17 • Associated Press

Warming up Saturday Raymond (undisclosed) is warming up for Saturday's game at Maryland, Brian Fonseca of NJ.com reports.

Impact By warming up for the Rutgers-Maryland game, Raymond is showing good signs of availability for what may be one of his easiest chances to excel in conference action. Maryland's team has notably struggled recently, and though the running back struggled against defending national champion Indiana, he did log 21 carries for 122 yards and one touchdown against USC back in Week 3.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision for Saturday Raymond (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game versus Maryland, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact Raymond's status for Saturday's contest will be decided during pregame warmups. It's still unclear what injury is putting his availability in jeopardy. He has 89 rushes for 469 yards and four touchdowns on the ground this season, so needless to say his availability is crucial for the Scarlet Knights.

OCTOBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Status in question for Week 7 Raymond (undisclosed) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup with Maryland.

Impact After registering a season-low 11 carries last week, Raymond may miss Saturday's game against the Terrapins with an undisclosed injury. The running back has not missed a game this season despite lingering health issues. The Montreal native has 89 carries for 469 yards and five total touchdowns this season.

OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Only 31 yards against Indiana Raymond (undisclosed) accrued 11 rushes for 31 yards and reeled in 2 of 4 targets for seven yards during Saturday's 47-15 loss to Indiana.

Impact Even though Raymond's yardage total was far lower than his usual standard in the category, him logging double-digit carries and returning against defending champion Indiana makes the stat line a lot more understandable. This season, he has 89 rushing attempts for 464 yards (5.3 per carry) and four rushing touchdowns. When he is healthy, Raymond is one of college football's premier running backs.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to face Hoosiers Raymond (undisclosed) is officially a game-time call for Rutgers' clash with Indiana but the tailback is expected to play, per Pete Nakos of On3.com.

Impact Raymond has yet to miss a game this season, and he's coming off his best performance yet in Week 4 against Howard as he ran for 16 carries for 140 yards and three touchdowns. Though he remains a question mark, the tailback is expected to give it a go, which is huge for a middling Rutgers squad that's going to need all the firepower it can muster against Indiana.

OCTOBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision Saturday Raymond (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Saturday's matchup versus Indiana, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact Raymond's status remains up in the air due to an undisclosed injury he seemingly picked up within the past week. If he ends up being unable to play, Clay Thevenin would likely be in line to start at running back.

SEPTEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Explodes for three touchdowns Raymond compiled 16 rushes for 140 yards and three touchdowns during Friday's 58-7 victory versus Howard.

Impact Raymond capitalized on an inferior Howard defense and racked up his third straight 100-plus-yard performance of the season. He currently ranks fourth in the FBS with 438 rushing yards and 14th nationally with four rushing touchdowns. He'll face a tough opponent in Indiana next week, which held Northwestern to just 33 yards on the ground.
