Texas Tech receiver Antoine Wesley came out of nowhere last season and emerged as one of the top receivers in college football.

But the junior receiver announced via Twitter on Monday that he will skip his senior season to declare for the 2019 NFL draft.

After catching 10 passes for 137 yards in 2017, Wesley led the Big 12 with 88 receptions for 1,410 yards and also had nine touchdowns this season. He was also named a semifinalist for the Biletnikoff award, which is given to the nation's top wide receiver in college football.
