He spent last season with the Los Angeles Chargers on their practice squad after signing with them as an undrafted rookie out of Rutgers. The six-foot, 228-pound linebacker was with the Philadelphia Eagles in the preseason.

While at Rutgers, he played in 52 games and started 27 of them over five seasons. He finished his collegiate career with 206 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, nine passes defensed, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
