Elijah Moore’s time at Ole Miss is coming to an end, and he’s taking his game to the next level.
On Thursday, Moore announced on Twitter that he is entering the 2021 NFL Draft after spending the past three seasons with the Rebels. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, considering Moore continues to put up big numbers and appears to have the potential to have success in the pros.
This season, Moore has 86 receptions for 1,193 yards and eight touchdowns in eight games. He’s built off the success of his sophomore season in 2019, when he had 67 receptions for 850 yards and six touchdowns in 12 games.
Over his three-year career at Ole Miss, Moore has 2,441 receiving yards and 16 touchdowns in 32 games.
Moore shared a heartfelt message to his family, his Ole Miss coaches and teammates and more in his announcement tweet:
Wouldn’t change a thing. I’m honestly just grateful…#8Ball ✌🏾 pic.twitter.com/BGlMlnq1Y5
