Syracuse, N.Y. — Just a brief update to pass along on 2016 linebacker commit Taylor Riggins.
He played in the Carrier Dome on Saturday night, helping his teammates at Aquinas knock off Christian Brothers Academy, 33-20. Riggins scored a rushing touchdown and recorded a pair of sacks in the victory.
Of course, Riggins is expected to transition to linebacker next year at Syracuse.
The 6-foot-1.5, 213-pounder said he works out at the position some during practice and also spent time on the 7-on-7 circuit earlier this summer refining his skills. He said he feels "comfortable" making the move.
