Texas Tech star linebacker Tyree Wilson will miss the rest of the college football season due to surgery to repair a foot injury suffered in last Saturday’s victory over Kansas.
Now that his season is finished prematurely, Wilson decided to announce his plans regarding his football future. In a lengthy Twitter post published Sunday, the standout linebacker declared for the NFL draft.
“I fully intended to finish this season with my brothers on the field, but unfortunately I broke a bone in my foot and despite my best efforts to work through it, multiple doctors have advised me to get it fixed immediately,” Wilson wrote.
