Alabama wideout Henry Ruggs is one of several Crimson Tide juniors who has a decision to make after the season concerning the NFL Draft.

One of the SEC's top playmakers was mum on Monday when asked if he'll be playing his final game on Wednesday in the Citrus Bowl vs. Michigan. He'll make the call returning or leaving the program after he plays his final game, he says.

“I don’t know," Ruggs said. "I mean, it’s the last game of this season. That’s all I can say.”

Ruggs caught 38 passes this season for 719 yards — a team-best 18.9 yards per reception average — and seven touchdowns. His only carry as a junior went for a 75-yard score against New Mexico State, a highlight that showcased his world-class speed.

Upon arriving in Orlando for bowl practice, Nick Saban was asked about the work ethic for players who are eyeing early departures to the NFL, ala Ruggs, Jerry Jeudy and others. Surprisingly, only two Alabama starters with the draft deadline on the horizon decided to sit out the postseason, cornerback Trevon Diggs and linebacker Terrell Lewis.

"Those guys have all been good," Saban said. "I told our guys, I said, ‘Look, if you’re a top-15, top-20 pick, I get it in terms of what you might be thinking about, but if you’re not that, we’re going to do everything we can to ensure you so that you don’t have to worry about playing in the game from an injury standpoint.' And you can go out there and create value for yourself. I think a lot of people in this world make decisions on what-ifs, and I think you want to deal from a position of strength. And I think when you worry about what-if, you think about a lot of weaknesses that what might happen, and that may make you not make a good choice and decision about what you do.

"But if you’re confident in moving forward in doing what you do and you create value for yourself, that’s going to give you the best opportunities in the future. So, that’s kind of what we’ve talked to our players about, and most of them buy into it and understand it and have done a good job with it.”

Ruggs holds a first-round projection in most mocks, alongside wideout teammate Jerry Jeudy.

Ruggs was rated as 247Sports' No. 1 player at his position in the class of 2017 and was slotted near the top of our 10 fastest players in college football ranking ahead of this season.
