Holden, a Floridian, has 46 receptions for 570 yards and seven touchdowns in 29 games over three seasons at Alabama.

According to 247Sports. Holden is the eighth Alabama player with plans to enter the portal. The others are defensive lineman Braylen Ingraham, kicker Jack Martin, running back Trey Sanders, defensive back Khyree Jackson, offensive linemen Damieon George and Tanner Bowles, and wide receiver Christian Leary.
