Michigan CB Ambry Thomas to declare for 2021 NFL Draft

Another talented Big Ten player is opting to make the early jump to the pros instead of waiting for a potential spring season

Another top prospect from the Big Ten Conference is opting to make the early jump to the next level instead of waiting around for the chance to play in the spring.

Michigan cornerback Ambry Thomas is the latest in a long line of college football players who are making the choice to start preparing for the 2021 NFL Draft, making his announcement Thursday via social media:

Thomas joins fellow Big Ten prospects like Minnesota wide receiver Rashod Bateman, Northwestern offensive tackle Rashawn Slater, Purdue wide receiver Rondale Moore and fellow Wolverine Jalen Mayfield as players who will be making the jump to the NFL instead of waiting to see if the Big Ten plays football in the Spring.

The Big Ten postponed their 2020 fall season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, leaving tons of players with a difficult decision about their football futures.
