Alabama NFL Draft Prospects

Former Alabama safety, Jared Mayden prepares himself for NFL Draft

KYLE TERADA - USA TODAY SPORTS

The state of Texas breeds confident winners. 

In the midst of COVID-19, Jared Mayden has decided to show NFL teams why taking a chance on him may be the best decision. Regardless of not having a Pro Day at Alabama, Mayden has teamed up with some trainers in Texas and performed workouts this week.

The former Crimson Tide safety posted a video on Twitter of him breaking on balls, flipping his hips and displaying quality footwork.

Once a four-star recruit, Mayden led Alabama with four interceptions last season. 

He showed at the Senior Bowl that he’s one of the more versatile defensive backs in this draft class.
