He also competed as a jumper and sprinter on the school's track team. He was named the most underrated prospect inFlorida by the High School Recruiting Report.[citation needed]

College career

[edit]

While attendingTennessee State University, Rodgers-Cromartie played for theTennessee State Tigers football team from 2004 to 2007.[5][6]

In 39 starts for the Tigers, opposing quarterbacks completed just 55 of 161 passes (34.16%) thrown near Rodgers-Cromartie. He intercepted 11 of those throws, deflected 25 and held the opposition to a minuscule 3.54 yards per pass attempt, the best of any collegiate defensive back over his three seasons.[citation needed]

He is a member ofPhi Beta Sigma fraternity.[7]

Track and field

[edit]

Rodgers-Cromartie was also a standout performer for the track team. Juggling football spring drills with the indoor and outdoor track seasons in 2007, he qualified for the NCAA Mid-East Regionals after he captured the Ohio Valley Conferencelong jump title, with a mark of 7.71 meters.[citation needed] In his second outdoor event, he was named OVC Male Athlete of the Week after finishing third at the Penn Relays with a conference-best long jump of 7.56 meters.[citation needed]

Professional career

[edit]

Pre-draft

[edit]

Rodgers-Cromartie drew relatively little draft interest at the start of the pre-draft process because Tennessee State played generally lackluster teams, and because of weak technique. However, he dramatically raised his profile and draft stock after impressing scouts duringSenior Bowl week, performing very well during the arranged practices, and also played well in the2008 Senior Bowl where he was named defensive MVP for the game.[9][10] A 4.2940-yard dash at theNFL combine was among some of the fastest times in event history.[11] He was widely regarded as the No. 2 cornerback prospect in the draft byNFL.com andESPN analystMel Kiper Jr. NFL draft scouts projected him to be a first round pick and expected him to be drafted no later than the 25th overall pick.[12]
