Raekwon McMillan turned in one of the finest performances of his career against Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl. To no surprise, he's using that as a springboard to an NFL career.
The junior and two-year stalwart at middle linebacker for Ohio State's defense will forgo his final year of collegiate eligibility and enter the 2017 NFL Draft. He made the announcement on his Twitter account Wednesday, four days after recording 15 tackles and a sack of Deshaun Watson in Ohio State's 31-0 loss to the Tigers.
The full statement McMillan posted to his Twitter account:
McMillan is the third Ohio State defender to declare for the NFL Draft in as many days.
