University of Alabama star linebacker Dylan Moses will return for his senior season in 2020.
The 2018 All-American and Butkus Award finalist made the announcement Monday night on social media. Moses did not play during the 2019 season due to a torn ACL in August. He also missed the 2018 College Football Playoff due to a broken foot.
Bama fans will hope that Moses returning next season will foreshadow more current juniors coming back instead of declaring for the NFL draft. Star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa tops that list of rising seniors with a major decision to make, as well as running back Najee Harris and wide receivers Jerry Jeudy, DeVonta Smith and Henry Ruggs, III.
This past weekend, Tagovailoa posted a cryptic message on one of his social media accounts, saying, “Gimme some time. To be continued.” That caption accompanied a picture of him in his signature No. 13 Tide uniform.

The injured quarterback travelled to Orlando with his teammates as they prepare for the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Day.
