KJ Duff Jr. Stays at Rutgers | Rutgers Scarlet News

KJ Duff Jr. nearly transferred after a breakout 2025 season, but ultimately chose to stay at Rutgers, citing deep ties to the coaching staff and a desire to leave a legacy. The standout wide receiver, who led the nation in contested catches and became the first Rutgers receiver in 11 years to hit 1,000 yards, nearly walked away after telling head coach Greg Schiano and receivers coach Dave Brock he was ready to go. After weeks of soul-searching, writing pros and cons, and even meeting with family, Duff stayed — inspired by Brock’s belief in him and his commitment to team success. Now poised to lead the Scarlet Knights into the 2026 season, Duff’s return signals a major boost for Rutgers as they prepare for their opener against UMass on September 3rd.
