Woodrow Wilson High School safety Edwin Lopez made his commitment to Rutgers University official today, signing his National Letter of Intent.
Lopez announced his commitment on June 1st, choosing Rutgers over his other offers from schools such as Boston College, North Carolina State, and Syracuse.
Lopez, a consensus 3-star recruit, brings versatility to the defensive backfield. Although he projects as a safety at the next level, Lopez played a healthy amount of corner in high school and might contribute at that position early on in his Rutgers career.
It is Lopez’s size, standing at 6’1”, 185 pounds, that feeds to the idea of converting to safety by the time he is an upper classman.
