Two of Alabama’s brightest stars got good news on Wednesday. Running back Najee Harris’ ankle checked out well with “no concerns,” according to NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport (on Twitter). Meanwhile, wide receiver Devonta Smith’s dislocated finger is said to be healing fine, despite his torn ligaments.

Harris is viewed as one of the best running backs in this year’s class. Teams have been keeping tabs on his recovery, but his ankle shouldn’t affect his stock, according to sources who spoke with RapSheet. Harris, a skilled pass-catcher, set Alabama records with 57 total touchdowns, 3,843 rushing yards, and 46 rushing TDs. His pass-catching ability is a major plus, though teams are equally intrigued by his combination of power and elusiveness.
Smith, meanwhile, is viewed as one of the three best wide receivers in this year’s class — somewhere behind Ja’Marr Chase and neck-and-neck with teammate Jaylen Waddle. While Waddle is known for his high-end speed, Smith has drawn rave reviews for his soft hands and ability to win 50/50 balls. His finger shouldn’t cause any long term issues, so it’d be a surprise to see him slip outside of the top ten.
So happy to hear this. I’m 41 and have been having issues with my colon. Not sure if it’s normal at this age but enjoy being young and making some dough kids.
Liquid chlorophyll helped my dad.
Good luck with that colon.
Not a complete surprise if he gets to 11 or 12. Most mocks are practically guaranteeing the Lions draft a WR at 7 and they probably should but Sewell could fall there in which case they may very well go get the LT.
If ATL doesn’t get Sewell or trades down he’s def sliding to the Lions
