If the last name "Tverdov" sounds familiar, it's because it is. Mike's older brother, Pete Tverdov, played at Rutgers during the mid-2000s. Pete spent four years at Rutgers, and led the team in tackles for loss as a senior in 2008. Now, Mike looks to follow in his footsteps.
Tverdov is a three-star recruit, and 247Sports lists him as the 27th-ranked New Jersey recruit for the 2017 class.
