Sunday, Rutgers received its first decommitment of the 2019 class when Wayne (N.J.) Hills safety Jaaron Hayek, brother of current Knights Hunter and Tyler Hayek, parted ways with the Scarlet Knights.
Rutgers is off to a tough 1-4 start to the season. And it's not just the losses but the way the team has struggled in contests it was predicted to win going into the year.
A 6-1, 190-pound three-star, Hayek also holds offers from Cincinnati, Temple, Army, Buffalo, UMass and a slew of FCS and Ivy League schools, but is likely hoping an inspired senior year could lead to even more oppotunities.
