It’s official, Janarion Grant is coming back to Rutgers football for the 2017 season.
This is tremendous news for an offense that finished dead last in college football last season, which Grant missed the majority of due to his injury. He qualified for a medical hardship waiver by playing just under the 30% cutoff for the season. The Big Ten counts the championship game for all teams, so it’s based on 13 games and Grant played in 4. Still, there was no guarantee Grant would return, as he could have entered the NFL Draft. Instead, he will look to improve his stock by returning for his senior season.
