Henry Ruggs was DENIED parole today — just 55 days before his earliest possible release date of August 5, 2026. The former Raiders first-round pick and Alabama national champ was breaking out in 2021, top three in the NFL in yards per catch, before the 156 mph DUI crash that killed 23-year-old Tina Tintor and ended his career the same day.
In prison, Ruggs finished his degree, led inmate workouts, and worked for $2.50 an hour — and Josh Jacobs said NFL teams were willing to give him a chance. Now the comeback waits: his MANDATORY release date is August 24, 2027.
