Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa declares for NFL draft; what it means for Detroit Lions

Bob Quinn’s decision at the top of April’s draft just got more interesting.

Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa officially declared for the NFL draft on Monday, saying he’ll forgo his final season of eligibility after leading the Crimson Tide to a 22-2 record.

Tagovailoa’s decision was not a surprise, though he suffered a serious hip injury in a November win over Mississippi State that’s muddled his draft stock.
