MADISON, Wis. -- After spending three seasons clearing a path for a record-setting running back, Wisconsin offensive lineman Tyler Biadasz is ready for the next step in his career.

On Wednesday afternoon, the standout center announced that he has declared for the 2020 NFL Draft.

"Thank you Wisconsin for all the great memories and letting me fulfill my lifelong dream of being a Badger," Biadasz tweeted. "I look forward to competing at the highest level. The NFL has always been my biggest dream and I can’t thank enough all the people that helped me along the way. #GodisGood"

The Amherst, Wisconsin native started all 41 games he played in for the Badgers and was a key member of an offensive line that blocked the way for two-time Doak Walker Award winner Jonathan Taylor.

Biadasz took home the Rimington Trophy this season, which is awarded annually to the nation's best center. He was also one of three Badgers to be named consensus first-team All Americans.

In 2018, his redshirt sophomore season, Biadasz was an All-America honorable mention (College Football News), first-team All-Big Ten (consensus), and Academic All-Big Ten. In 2017, his first season on the field, Biadasz was named Freshman All-America (FWAA, USA Today), third-team All-Big Ten (consensus), and Academic All-Big Ten.
