Paralyzed Rutgers Player Eric LeGrand To Broadcast Spring Game

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Paralyzed Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand is going to make his broadcasting debut on Saturday.

The university announced Wednesday that LeGrand will join Chris Carlin and Ray Lucas in the booth at Rutgers Stadium to provide analysis of the Scarlet-White spring game.

For the second consecutive year, KnightVision Broadband on ScarletKnights.com will broadcast the game, which starts at 3 p.m.

LeGrand, who was hurt in a game against Army on Oct. 16, said earlier this week that he is considering a career as a sports broadcaster.
