Alabama wide receiver ArDarius Stewart is expected to forgo his redshirt senior season with the Tide and enter the NFL draft, sources told AL.com.

Stewart had 54 catches for 864 yards and eight touchdowns this season as a redshirt junior, leading the team in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns despite missing three-and-a-half games.

While the Fultondale native only had two catches for 12 yards during Alabama's loss to Clemson in the national title game, he had a 25-yard run on the Tide's first scoring drive and a big-time 24-yard completion on a wide receiver pass during Alabama's go-ahead scoring drive late in the fourth quarter.

Stewart's two biggest games came against Mississippi State and Auburn in November, catching a combined 18 passes for 283 yards and four touchdowns.

Stewart had 63 catches for 700 yards and four scores as a redshirt sophomore in 2015.
