Former Alabama wide receiver Chris Black has chosen a transfer destination, he announced Monday via Twitter.

Black, who was granted release from his scholarship with the Crimson Tide in December, is now a Missouri Tiger.

Black underwent a procedure to repair a nagging ankle injury early in November, Nick Saban announced, and was shut down for the remainder of the year. On the season, Black caught two passes for 23 yards in six games.

"He did everything he could for the team," Saban said. "He did everything he could to try to play. I know it was disappointing for him not to get to play more. But it was a lot to do with not being full speed all year long."

The Florida native should be eligible to play immediately as a graduate transfer at the next school he chooses to attend.

Black was a four-star receiver in the 2012 recruiting cycle and was ranked as the No. 6 wide out and No. 46 overall player that year, according to the 247Sports Composite. He committed to Alabama on Aug. 5, 2011.
