Bronx, N.Y. - The 2018 Fordham football squad has some important holes to fill due to graduation and as we start our position-by-position look at the 2018 Rams we start with one of those positions: quarterback.
Â
Gone is former All-Patriot League selection
Kevin Anderson, who graduated as one of the top passers in Fordham football history, setting a school record for career touchdown passes and ranks in the top ten in completions and passing yards, despite missing part of the 2017 season with an injury.
Â
One of the positives that came out of Anderson's injury in 2017 was that senior
Luke Medlock and junior
Austin King got to gain experience in his absence.
