Kameron Anthony - Dealing with achilles injury Anthony (achilles) has been dealing with an achilles issue dating back to the 2025 season, per Andrew Rice of SBNation.

Impact Anthony suffered the injury towards the end of the 2025 season and has been dealing with the issue throughout the off-season. The 6-foot-4 tight end caught seven passes for 117 yards and two touchdowns across eight games for Ball State prior to his injury. Anthony's return timeline is not currently known.

Ben Rothhaar - In the mix for tight end reps Rothhaar (undisclosed) is competing for reps in Rutgers' open tight end room, per Richie O'Leary of On3.

Impact Rothhaar didn't get involved in his freshman season in Piscataway, and he battled an injury throughout the campaign. However, he's back healthy and working his way up the pecking order in the Scarlet Knights' tight end room during spring practice.

Dylan Lonergan - Competing for starting QB gig Lonergan (thumb) is competing for Rutgers' starting quarterback gig, per 247Sports.com.

Impact Lonergan is in a quarterback battle with AJ Surace, the incumbent returnee for Rutgers. Lonergan, meanwhile, transferred from Boston College after a two-year stint with Alabama. He flashed some potential last season with the Eagles, tossing for 2,025 yards, 12 touchdowns and five interceptions while completing 67 percent of his passes. He battled a thumb injury towards the end of the season, but appears to be over that in the Scarlet Knights spring camp.

AJ Surace - Competing for starting job Surace is competing against Dylan Lonergan for Rutgers' starting quarterback position, Kristian Dyer of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Even though Surace stood out in the spring of 2025, he did not log much playing time for Rutgers that year. Fast-forward to 2026, and he stands at least a better chance, though Lonergan will provide stiff competition. In terms of Surace's 2025, his production was solid despite limitations, backed by four completed passes for 58 yards and two touchdowns without any turnovers.

Vernon Allen III - Healthy again Allen (undisclosed) is healthy again, Kristian Dyer of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact For the first time since the early part of Rutgers' 2025 season, Allen is healthy. During the year, he was targeted only once but managed to get something big in the form of an 18-yard reception.

Clay Thevenin - Headed to Piscataway Thevenin will transfer to Rutgers, he announced on his personal X account.

Impact Thevenin is coming off a strong season with Louisiana Tech in which he ran for 634 yards and eight touchdowns while reeling in 33 catches for 269 yards. He'll now head to Rutgers with what appears to be two years of eligibility remaining, and he'll look to get involved behind returning star Antwan Raymond.

Kameron Anthony - Headed to Piscataway Anthony will transfer to Rutgers, per Bobby Deren of 247Sports.com.

Impact Anthony caught seven passes for 117 yards and two touchdowns in his redshirt freshman season with Ball State. Now, the tight end will take his talents to the Scarlet Knights, where he'll look to blossom into a Big Ten-caliber receiving threat at the tight end spot in Piscataway. Anthony has three seasons of eligibility remaining.

JANUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Dylan Lonergan - Commits to Rutgers Lonergan (thumb) has committed to Rutgers, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Considering how well Lonergan threw for Boston College, his impending transfer to a Power Conference college is unsurprising. During 2025, he completed more than two-thirds of 284 pass attempts for 2,025 yards and a 12-5 TD-INT ratio. Lonergan's focus shifts to spring practice, for which he is questionable because of a thumb injury suffered during Week 14.

JANUARY 5 • ROTOWIRE

Ian Strong - Finishes season with low total Strong compiled three receptions (on six targets) for 37 yards during Saturday's 40-36 defeat against Penn State.

Impact Strong regressed considerably as the season came to a close, registering only four catches for 46 yards over the final two games. Strong's season totals were good, with 52 catches for 752 yards and five touchdowns, but he may utilize his final season of eligibility to maximize his draft potential. That could mean a move to another team, as the loss of Athan Kaliakmanis is a huge hit to the team's assing attack.

DECEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Kenny Fletcher Jr. - Surprises with 85 receiving yards Fletcher gathered in all four targets for 85 yards during Saturday's 40-36 defeat to Penn State.

Impact The senior hasn't done much during his four-year tenure with Rutgers, but he managed ht best totals of his career in his senior campaign, logging 26 catches for 236 yards. Fletcher's NFL chances are likely not very high, and he'd need a strong combine to lift his overall profile.

DECEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Antwan Raymond - Blows up for 189 yards Raymond totaled 29 carries for 189 yards and one touchdown and hauled in all two targets for 62 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 40-36 defeat against Penn State.

Impact Raymond's 2025 numbers were among the best in the FBS, with 1,241 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns. He also added 18 receptions for 225 receiving yards and two touchdown catches. The sophomore would be high on the list if he chose to leave the Scarlet Knights and enter the transfer portal, but the team will make the best NIL pitch they can make to retain his services.

DECEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Athan Kaliakmanis - Drops excellent stat line in finale Kaliakmanis was 16-for-22 passing for 338 yards and three touchdowns during Saturday's 40-36 defeat to Penn State. He also had 10 rushes for negative one yard with one touchdown.

Impact Although Rutgers endured another disappointing season, Kaliakmanis still posted a very impressive final total. The senior threw for 3,124 yards, 20 touchdowns and seven interceptions, and also added four touchdowns on the ground. The 6-3 senior will need to have a great combine to raise his draft chances, but he has the necessary skills to make it to the next level.

DECEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

KJ Duff - Records catch of the year in loss Duff hauled in all five targets for 127 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 40-36 loss versus Penn State.

Impact Duff reeled in an impossible one-handed catch that should top the season's highlight drills, and although the sophomore can't join the NFL ranks yet, he certainly added a doozy to his resume. Dudd caught 60 passes for 1,084 yards and seven touchdowns this season, and it's possible that two years at Rutgers might be enough for Duff. He'd be highly sought after if he entered the portal, and his situation fits the profile of a player who could raise his national profile and NIL earnings with a better team.
