At the end of his career he also owned the single-season record for passing yards (2,590 yards, 2007).

A Syracuse native, Kramer graduated from Oneida High School in 2004 as one of the school’s top athletes. An All-State performer in both baseball and football, Kramer was also a 1,000-point scorer for the Indians’ basketball team.
