There was a brief bit of speculation over whether or not Jerry Jeudy planned on entering the draft, but those doubts can now be put to rest.

The standout Alabama Crimson Tide wide receiver has officially declared for the 2020 NFL Draft, per Adam Schefter.

Jeudy established himself as one of the best wide receivers in the nation this year while catching passes from star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

He finished the season with 77 catches for 1,163 receiving yards and 10 receiving touchdowns. Jeudy amassed 2,742 total receiving yards across his three years at Alabama.

The standout star took the time to thank Crimson Tide fans for their support over the years.

Few offensive players in this year's draft have as much upside as he does and it shouldn't take long for him to hear his name called in April. Whichever team that drafts him will be getting an elite play-maker in the receiving game.

Time will tell if he will be able to join the likes of Amari Cooper, Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley as star receivers from Alabama who were able to develop into some of the league's best receiving threats. Based on his college career, Jeudy certainly has a chance to have his name mentioned among that group.
