After the conclusion of the NFL draft, where quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis was the only former Scarlet Knight to have his name called, several other former Rutgers football players signed undrafted free agent deals with NFL teams. These include tight end Kenny Fletcher Jr, EDGE Eric O’Neill, cornerback Cam Miller, and wide receiver DT Sheffield. All but Fletcher signed with Rutgers for their last season of eligibility in 2025.

Sheffield signed with Rutgers for the 2025 season after playing the 2024 season at North Texas. In 2025, Sheffield caught 44 passes for 577 yards and five touchdowns. He was seen as a reliable third pass catcher after Ian Strong and KJ Duff. He inked a UDFA deal with the New York Jets.
