Squad composition
How the 32-player squad breaks down by position, as published by Rutgers for 2026-27. Players listed at two positions are counted at both, since they provide cover in either.
- Goalkeepers4
- Defenders13
- Midfielders10 (9)
- Forwards6 (5)
1 player is listed at two positions; the figure in brackets counts only single-position players.
Who is leaving, and when
9 of the 32 are in their final year, so on current form that many places open up next summer — 28% of the squad. A redshirt year does not change this: a redshirt senior leaves when a senior does.
Going by position: 4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 1 goalkeeper, 1 forward. Which programmes lose the most at your position?

Final-year groups are shown in amber. A player listed at two positions is counted under each of them, since they provide cover in either, so the positions on a row can total more than the row itself. Redshirt players are counted in the year they are listed for.
