Knights in the NFL – Week 15

Two members of the 2014 Rutgers squad had memorable moments in week 15 of their rookie year. Both Tyler Kroft and Michael Burton had their first NFL touchdowns, with Kroft's coming on a 20-yard catch in a win over San Francisco, and Burton catching a touchdown in primetime on Monday Night Football.
