He did not put a defender to the ground with his athleticism in Alabama’s win over the Citadel, but wide receiver Jerry Jeudy did accomplish a huge milestone with his performance.
The sophomore entered this week as the Crimson Tide’s leader in receptions (45), receiving yards (925) and touchdowns (10), before going into the matchup.
It was Henry Ruggs III that led the program in yards (114) versus the Bulldogs and freshman Jaylen Waddle recorded two touchdowns; however, Jeudy’s 77 yards receiving on six catches put him in an elite class.
Former Tide stars Julio Jones, Amari Cooper and Calvin Ridley all were 1,000-yard weapons at the University of Alabama.
