The 6-foot-2 defensive back also holds offers from Akron, Boston College, Central Michigan, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh, Princeton, Rutgers, Temple, and Yale.
Duke was not done in the state of New Jersey, also offering a weak-side defensive end with Timber Creek High School star Jihaad Campbell.
