Alabama named Ty Simpson as the potential starting quarterback, leading the competition against Austin Mack and Keelon Rusell. The team aims to retain all three quarterbacks as the NCAA spring transfer portal opens. Head coach Kalen DeBoer expressed optimism in keeping the trio, emphasizing their ongoing opportunity to compete for the starting position.
With the departure of Jalen Milroe and Dylan Lonergan, Alabama currently has three scholarship quarterbacks. The team navigated spring practices cautiously to protect their limited depth at the position. While the possibility of adding a fourth quarterback through the transfer portal exists, maintaining three quarterbacks appears most probable for the upcoming season. The spring transfer window will be active until April 25.
