Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa entered the 2019 season considered one of the top picks for the 2020 NFL draft. And despite suffering a hip dislocation in the Crimson Tide's Nov. 16 win over Mississippi State and having surgery two weeks later, Tagovailoa is forgoing his senior season and entering the draft.
The QB announced his decision at a press conference on Monday with head coach Nick Saban.
"I've had a difficult time making this decision about my future," Tagovailoa said. "I will be declaring and entering the 2020 NFL draft."
At the time of his surgery, Tagovailoa's procedure was said to have been a success.
