The leader of the Rutgers defensive line has seen and done a lot in his career on the banks. After sitting out his first year as a redshirt, Kevin Wilkins hasn’t missed a game in three seasons. He has played every position on the line at some point in his career, including starting at nose tackle and defensive end. His versatility and experience will be a major asset this season, as Wilkins is expected to move along the line in various fronts for defensive coordinator Jay Niemann.
