NEWARK, N.J. (AP) – A couple of extra days off could not have come at a better time for Rutgers’ football team.
With 10 days between games, the Scarlet Knights will get some down time to deal with the devastating injury that left teammate Eric LeGrand paralyzed from the neck down and to gather themselves after a disappointing 41-21 loss to Pittsburgh on Saturday.
Coach Greg Schiano did not update LeGrand’s condition on Sunday during a conference call, but he said the junior defensive tackle was able to watch the game from his room at Hackensack University Medical Center.
LeGrand’s condition has not changed since he was injured making a tackle on a kickoff return against Army on Oct. 16, Schiano said after Saturday’s loss at Pittsburgh.
