During his press conference on Monday, Alabama head coach Nick Saban announced that senior cornerback Trevon Diggs and outside linebacker Terrell Lewis will not play in the Citrus Bowl against Michigan and will prepare for the NFL Draft.
“We have two players who have made the choice to not play in the game — Terrell Lewis and Trevon Diggs,” said Saban. “Every guy’s got a choice and decision to make, and we certainly respect and understand their decision and wish them well in what they choose to do.”
It was reported by Touchdown Alabama’s Stephen M. Smith that neither of the defenders was present during Monday’s practice.
