Henry Ruggs is getting in a workout.

In a video posted to social media, the former Las Vegas Raiders speedy wide receiver is being filmed going through speed drills on a football field. A caption on one of the videos says “Henry Ruggs Is Back On The Field Working Out,” suggesting it’s a pretty recent video.

Watch the video below:

It should be noted that lawyers for Henry Ruggs stated that the video of the former Raiders wide receiver doing agility drills was filmed before the fatal November 2021 crash that killed 23-year-old Tina Tintor.

“A caption on one of the videos says “Henry Ruggs Is Back On The Field Working Out,” suggesting the workout was recent.

“It is unfortunate and mean-spirited that this type of speculative reporting occurs,” the law firm of Chesnoff & Schonfeld told the Review-Journal in a statement. “It does real harm to all people impacted by the case.””

The former NFL receiver has been charged with felony counts of DUI resulting in death, DUI resulting in substantial bodily harm and two counts of reckless driving resulting in death or substantial bodily harm in connection with the crash.

It’s highly unlikely we’ll ever see Henry Ruggs on an  NFL team again, but you really never know.  The 23-year-old electric receiver was  driving 156 miles per hour seconds before the fatal crash and had his blood-alcohol level tested at 0.16 percent, twice the legal limit for drivers in Nevada.

Ruggs was released from the Las Vegas Raiders only hours after his accident.
