Arden Key continues to drop hints that he's ready to return to football after the LSU star took an indefinite leave of absence in February for personal reasons.
The 6-foot-6, 255-pounder, who tweeted earlier in April that he was ready to go, took to social media again Wednesday to inform people that he won't sit out his junior season.
I am not sitting out my junior year.

Key finished second in the SEC last year with 12 sacks while also turning in an impressive 14.5 tackles for loss. He's considered a lock for the top 10 in the 2018 NFL Draft, and could be the first off the board with a strong junior campaign.
