Rutgers Scarlet Knights football statistical leaders
The Rutgers Scarlet Knights football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights football program in various categories, including passing, rushing, receiving, total offense, defensive stats, and kicking. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The Scarlet Knights represent Rutgers University–New Brunswick in the NCAA's Big Ten Conference.

Although Rutgers began competing in intercollegiate football in 1869, records from before the 1940s are often incomplete and inconsistent, and are often not included in these lists. However, when available, as in the case of Homer Hazel, the players can appear on the lists.

These lists are dominated by more recent players for several reasons:
 Since 1957, seasons have increased from 10 games to 11 and then 12 games in length.
 The NCAA didn't allow freshmen to play varsity football until 1972 (with the exception of the World War II years), allowing players to have four-year careers.
 Bowl games only began counting toward single-season and career statistics in 2002. The Scarlet Knights have played in nine bowl games since then.

These lists are updated through the end of the 2016 season.
