Henry Ruggs III can be surprise go-to receiver for Alabama this fall

DeVonta Smith caught the game winner and Jerry Jeudy looks like an NFL receiver, but Henry Ruggs III may emerge as the go-to target for Alabama this season – with a potential disclaimer.

This could largely depend upon who is playing quarterback for the Crimson Tide.

Tua Tagovailoa will forever be remembered for connecting with Smith to give Alabama an epic 26-23 overtime win over Georgia on the final play of the College Football Playoff title game, but he found Ruggs III for three straight completions capped by a 6-yard touchdown to start the comeback.
