Video: Syracuse QB Rex Culpepper Throws 1st TD Since Being Declared Cancer-Free
During Saturday's game against Pittsburgh, Syracuse senior quarterback Rex Culpepper threw his first touchdown pass since being declared cancer-free in 2018.
Culpepper entered the game when Syracuse starter Tommy DeVito exited with an undisclosed injury, and he wasted little time in finding wide receiver Taj Harris for a 69-yard touchdown that put the Orange on top 10-7 in the second quarter:
