Committing to Rutgers as a high school senior, Carrezola came into the college game a highly-touted player. At 6-2, 240 pounds, the Knights expected a physical presence on the line which they definitely got over his career at Rutgers.

In 2012 after battling an injury, the tight end’s first appearance of the season was a mid-September 23-13 victory at South Florida and then he grabbed his first catch and touchdown of the season on a two-yard throw from quarterback Gary Nova in a 35-26 win at Arkansas.

The tight end has signed the gloves in black and added “RU vs ARK, Game Worn” to the right glove. Carrezola’s #89 is written in black on the inside of each glove and they show great use.
