Florida Gators redshirt junior running back Jordan Scarlett will forgo his final year of eligibility and enter the 2019 NFL Draft, he revealed in a tweet on Wednesday.
Scarlett going pro is about as far from a surprise as such a decision can be. After sitting out the entirety of the 2017 season following his involvement in a spate of credit card fraud by Florida players, Scarlett has spent four years as a college football player — an eternity for a potential NFL talent, especially at running back — and proven all he can at the collegiate level.
