A bit unusual for Patriot football (undergraduate transfer to Power Five FBS) but the extra Covid year and the new rule permitting immediate eligibility (one time transfer exemption) is definitely a part of it:
Rutgers’ passing game just improved after adding junior wide receiver Brandon Sanders to its receivers corps through the transfer portal. A 6-foot, 205-pound junior, Sanders leaves Bucknell ranked seventh all-time in receptions with 125. He also shares the school’s single-game receptions (14 in 2019) record and is a two-time first-team All-Patriot League selection.
After dominating the FCS level, Sanders yearned for the chance to prove himself on football’s biggest stage. And it doesn’t get much bigger than the Big Ten.
Sanders has two years of eligibility remaining. He’s played both inside and outside receiver and brings a wealth of experience to the huddle. He will set foot on campus for the first time on May 20 for the Scarlet-White game.
