Juwuan Briscoe will transfer to Rutgers, the player announced Saturday. He made the announcement on his Snapchat account after a weekend visit to Piscataway.
“I can’t thank God enough for allowing me to do what I love again!” he added in a tweet. “Proud to say that I am 100% Committed [sic] to the University of Rutgers.”
Rutgers cornerbacks coach Henry Baker later confirmed the commitment on his Twitter account.
A consensus three-star prospect from Waldorf, Md., Briscoe appeared in 18 games as a Bulldog with 22 career tackles. He also posted two interceptions and two fumble recoveries.
After sitting out 2017, Briscoe figures to be an immediate contributor for the Scarlet Knights in 2018. Rutgers finished last season ranked 97th nationally in pass efficiency defense, allowing completions on 58.3 percent of passes for 7.6 yards per attempt with 21 touchdowns against eight interceptions.
