Alabama Names Three New Captains | Huntsville News

Alabama’s 2026 football season kicks off with a leadership shakeup—three permanent captains announced in July: Ryan Coleman-Williams, Bray Hubbard, and Zabien Brown. Coach Kalen DeBoer’s move to name captains pre-season marks a departure from past traditions. Each captain brings elite playmaking: Brown with game-changing interceptions, Hubbard with fumble recoveries and clutch picks, and Coleman-Williams, returning from a sophomore slump, still boasts a memorable Georgia TD. All three will lead the Tide through their opener against East Carolina this Saturday, with Hubbard at safety, Brown at cornerback, and Coleman-Williams at receiver.
