Greg Schiano Returning To Rutgers For 2027 Despite 2-7 Season, No Bowl Bid

Clay Thevenin - Tepid production in defeat Thevenin totaled 10 rushes for 40 yards and hauled in their only target for negative two yards during Saturday's 31-10 loss to Wisconsin.

Impact Thevenin got a heavier load than usual and was steady, if not spectacular, as the No. 2 back. Rutgers has been splitting carries all season, and he's had more success near the goal line than his workload suggests. He'll keep seeing touches, but he needs Rutgers to be in scoring range more often to deliver more than a modest return.

Antwan Raymond - 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.

AJ Surace - Struggles in loss Surace was 14-for-24 passing for 161 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 31-10 loss to Wisconsin. He also had nine rushes for -14 yards.

Impact In his second straight start with Dylan Lonergan (head) out, Surace held his own for a half, and his touchdown pass to Dyzier Carter tied the game at 10 late in the second quarter. After that, Wisconsin took over. The Badgers sacked him five times, and Rutgers didn't score again. Surace has been better than the numbers show since taking over, but he isn't getting much help from his offensive line. He's projected to start again this week against Nebraska.

Dane Pizzaro - Doesn't play Saturday Pizzaro (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's 31-10 loss against Wisconsin.

Impact Pizzaro warmed up with the team prior to kickoff, but he was ultimately held out of action. Jack Scullion handled primary kicking duties for the Scarlet Knights in his absence. Pizzaro will aim to recover and potentially return to his starting role in Week 11 against Nebraska.

Impact Pizzaro is giving his best to attempt to play on Saturday, given his particiaption during warmups and being in full uniform. If he is unavailable, Jack Scullion appears in line to handle primary kickign duites.

KJ Duff - Won't play in Madison Duff (lower body) won't play in Week 10 at Wisconsin, per Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com.

Impact Duff was listed as doubtful for the clash with the Badgers, and indeed, the wideout is set to be sidelined Saturday afternoon in Camp Randall Stadium. This is a tough blow to the Scarlet Knights' offense that's already missing its starting quarterback Dylan Lonergan. He'll look to return in Week 11 against Nebraska.

KJ Duff - Listed as doubtful for Week 10 Duff (lower body) is considered doubtful for Saturday's matchup versus Wisconsin, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact After suffering a lower-body injury in last week's matchup against Michigan, Duff's status for Saturday's game against the Badgers is in serious doubt. The Scarlet Knights will most likely be without their top pass-catcher, who has recorded 45 catches for 774 yards and nine touchdowns this year.

Dylan Lonergan - Won't play Saturday Lonergan (head) won't play Saturday's clash with Wisconsin, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact Lonergan will sit out his second straight game for Rutgers as he tends to a head injury sustained against Northwestern in Week 8. It was reported that his status remains unclear for the team's final four regular-season games moving forward. AJ Surace is positioned to start under center in his absence.

KJ Duff - Remains question mark this week Duff is a serious question mark for this week, according to Seamus Rohrer of Badgers on SI.

Impact Duff had previously been dealing with a lower-body injury, and his status is uncertain for the game against Wisconsin on Saturday. If he's limited or unavailable, Rutgers would risk being without its top pass-catching option again. Duff has 45 catches for 774 yards and nine TDs this season.

Clay Thevenin - Find end zone in defeat Thevenin had seven carries for 30 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 28-21 loss against Michigan.

Impact Thevenin handled his usual complementary role and delivered the tying touchdown in the fourth quarter before Michigan pulled away late. He remains Rutgers' top option near the goal line, which keeps his scoring chances alive even when the carries are limited. He'll look to stay involved Saturday at Wisconsin.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Antwan Raymond - 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

AJ Surace - Abysmal as QB replacement Surace was 3-for-12 passing for 123 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 28-21 defeat against Michigan. He also had seven rushes for five yards.

Impact Surace got the start with Dylan Lonergan sidelined by a headinjury and struggled to find any rhythm, with one long touchdown to a wide-open Jourdin Houston as the main highlight. With KJ Duff (upper body) also hurt, the passing game has few dependable options. Whether he starts again Saturday at Wisconsin depends on Lonergan's status, and the Badgers' pass defense will be tough either way.

NOVEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

KJ Duff - Dealing with lower-body injury Duff (lower body) suffered an injury during Saturday's contest and is questionable moving forward, per Chris Iseman of the Asbury Park Press.

Impact Duff exited Saturday's contest due to the issue, and although he was able to return to the game, he did so briefly before exiting once again. The 6-foot-6 junior had caught three passes for 33 scoreless yards on the day prior to his injury. The details and severity of the injury are thus far unknown, but his status for next week's matchup against Wisconsin is currently up in the air.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Dylan Lonergan - Status unclear for November Lonergan's status for the final four games of the regular season is uncertain as he recovers from a head injury, per Chris Iseman of the Asbury Park Press.

Impact Lonergan sat out Saturday's contest against Michigan but is in jeopardy of missing the rest of Rutger's regular season. The quartebrack served as the starter before suffering a head injury in Week 8. If he is unable to recover ahead of the last four games, AJ Surace is in line to man the helm under center.

KJ Duff - Will play Saturday Duff (undisclosed) will play though he is banged up for Saturday's game against Michigan, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Rutgers' team is already down its starting quarterback Dylan Lonergan (head), so having Duff available nonetheless is imperative to the Knights' chances of defeating Michigan on Sunday. He has been Rutgers' best wide receiver, and one of college football's premier wideouts, with 774 receiving yards and nine touchdowns across his seven games this season. The question is how much Duff's current health will affect his usage against Michigan, considering he does not look 100 percent.

KJ Duff - Dressed and warming up for Saturday's game Duff (undisclosed) is dressed and warming up for Saturday's game against Michigan, Brian Fonseca of NJ.com reports.

Impact Duff dressed and warming up for Saturday's game suggests he can be good to go for the Week 9 matchup. Rutgers' offense will already be down its top quarterback Dylan Lonergan (head) and having his top threat unavailable would cause even more trouble, especially with his proven abilities. Beyond the fact that Duff has more touchdowns than games so far this year, he also averages an impressive 17.2 yards per reception, with 45 catches for 774 yards.
