Wisconsin RB Jonathan Taylor declares for 2020 NFL draft

The 2020 NFL draft just gained another talented running back with Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor declaring for this year’s class.

Taylor finished his three-year career with 6,174 yards rushing and 50 rushing touchdowns. Those numbers are sixth-best in NCAA history behind another former Badger in Ron Dayne. In 2018, Taylor posted the 7th best season in NCAA history with 2,194 yards.

Taylor posted his declaration with a video on social media:

Taylor would have been a shoe in to break the NCAA record set by Ron Dayne given his performances over the last three seasons but can’t fault him for pursuing his dream. Taylor is a well-rounded back and will surely be a top running back taken in this year’s NFL Draft.
