PISCATAWAY, N.J. (March 4, 2014) –For the fifth consecutive year, RVision will broadcast Rutgers’ Pro Day live from the Indoor Practice Bubble on ScarletKnights.com.

WNBC-4 sports anchor and reporter Bruce Beck will host the broadcast on RVision for the fifth straight year. Beck will be joined on set for the entire broadcast by current Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker and former Rutgers defensive standout Jamaal Westerman. Beck and Westerman will have a multitude of guests on the program, including Rutgers head coach Kyle Flood.
Several of Rutgers’ current NFL standoutsare scheduled to attend and will join Beck and Westernman on set, including Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Mohamed Sanu.
Much like the coverage of the NFL Scouting Combine on the NFL Network, RVision will incorporate a multi-camera shoot to show the action from the event. Results of the events will be reported as the event rolls along, in addition to interviews throughout Pro Day.

Anthony Davis was also the 12th overall selection of the 2010 NFL Draft, the highest draft pick in Rutgers’ history.
