Alabama LB Christian Miller had to wait his turn behind some star linebackers for his first three seasons with the Crimson Tide.

However, much like many of the Tide defenders, when he got his chance, he made the most of it. As a starter in 2018, he played in 14 games, recording 34 tackles (11 for a loss) and eight sacks as one of the Tide’s top pass rushers.

Now that he’s exhausted his college eligibility, he’ll head off to the 2019 NFL Draft. As you can see below, he thanked his teammates, fans and coaches for an amazing five seasons:

Miller may not end up being a first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, but he should hear his name called before the end of Day 2 of the event.

We’ll see where he ends up, but wherever it is, he’ll always appreciate the time he spent in Tuscaloosa.
