Henry Ruggs III is the latest Alabama standout to declare early for the 2020 NFL Draft.
The junior receiver joined Tua Tagovailoa, Jerry Jeudy, Jedrick Wills, Terrell Lewis and Xavier McKinney as Crimson Tide players to announce their decisions to leave school early to pursue a career in the NFL.
Arguably Alabama’s fastest player, Ruggs could be the fastest receiver available in the 2020 NFL Draft. It will be interesting to see what 40-yard dash time Ruggs puts up, if he runs at the upcoming NFL Combine.
Ruggs finishes his collegiate career with 98 receptions for 1,716 receiving yards and 24 touchdowns in just three seasons of play.
The standout Crimson Tide receiver announced his decision with the following post on Instagram:
In case you have forgotten, Ruggs can really run.
He can fly?https://t.co/WElB6shmOV
