Keelon Russell Flashes in Alabama's Spring Game
Redshirt-freshman quarterback Keelon Russell had a fantastic outing during Alabama's A-Day scrimmage, tallying 21 completions, 240 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. He is battling Austin Mack for the QB1 job in Tuscaloosa, and although Mack was the first quarterback on the field on Saturday, the competition is viewed as wide open. Russell is a former five-star recruit in the Class of 2025, and the belief is that Alabama could opt to start him if the competition is close since he is the younger player. It's important not to read too far into spring scrimmages, but Russell looked the part. Head coach Kalen Deboer is not expected to name a starter for 2026 anytime soon.
