Greg Schiano discusses new receivers, Tiquan Underwood’s departure

While Rutgers prioritized the offensive line this offseason in adding four transfers from the portal, elevating the wide receiver position was also a key focus point for the program. With the loss of leading receiver Bo Melton and Aron Cruickshank recovering from a season ending knee injury, finding additional playmakers was a necessity. The Scarlet Knights were able to find two experienced wideouts that have the potential to make a big impact in 2022.

Both receivers are playmakers, something that the offense desperately needed. Taj Harris was one of the best receivers in the ACC two seasons ago and one of the best in Syracuse history.
