Earned his GED and worked to support his girlfriend and their son, Jabari, who is now 7. Caught the attention of a recruiter from ASA College in Brooklyn during flag football game and left to play football and basketball there in 2011 before being kicked out of school for "something I didn't do," according to Sifrin. Enrolled at El Camino Junior College to play football and finished with 18 catches, including 5 for touchdowns. Transferred to play under former NFL coach Mark Whipple at UMass, where he had 42 catches for 642 yards and 6 touchdowns in his only season at the school. Sifrin was named first-team All-MAC.
