Junior nickelback Javelin Guidry announced via Twitter his intention to enter the 2020 NFL Draft. Guidry was twice an All-Pac-12 honorable mention selection as a nickelback for the Utes.
Guidry was earmarked as the lone returning starter on the backend of Utah’s secondary. He would have been a reasonable choice to play outside as a cornerback, potentially across from high-profile 2020 recruit Clark Phillips III. Instead, the nickelback spot is now up for grabs, and a lot of unproven young guys to vie for it.
Aside from Guidry, Utah was already losing a ton in its secondary with Jaylon Johnson, Julian Blackmon, Terrell Burgess, Josh Nurse and Tareke Lewis.
