A few pieces are locked in with LT Overton, Justin Jefferson, Domani Jackson and Deontae Lawson each returning for the 2025 season. A few more have been added through the NCAA transfer portal, pieces like Texas A&M guard Kam Dewberry and Colorado linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green, who are expected to be starters upon arrival.

One of Alabama football’s transfer portal departures has found his new home. Defensive edge rusher Jayshawn Ross has committed to Kansas State, he announced on social media Tuesday. Ross spent one season with Alabama, and didn’t get much time on the field. He played only in the Crimson Tide’s win over Mercer late in the regular season.

After a breakout season in which he was the program’s starting right tackle, Alabama Crimson Tide offensive lineman Elijah Pritchett is set to enter the NCAA transfer portal according to reports Saturday night.
