Alabama defensive lineman Byron Young announced that he was officially entering the 2023 NFL d raft on Thursday. He announced the news via his Instagram.
Young spent four seasons in Tuscaloosa. He had 19 starts over the course of his career. He tallied 132 tackles and 7.5 sacks. His explosiveness and ability to plug holes are what stands out the most from his game.
He could have returned for a fifth season due to the COVID season that the NCAA granted back in 2020. However, he will now be looking to play at the next level.
