DeBoer Names Russell Starter | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Alabama’s Kalen DeBoer drops a hype-packed update after preseason practice No. 15, spotlighting the team’s relentless energy and locker-room chemistry as they gear up for the season. The squad’s final session in the stadium — designed to make new faces feel at home — ended with a clear message: Keelon Russell is the starting QB, earned through grit, leadership, and undeniable playmaking ability. His teammates? Fully behind him. Meanwhile, Noah Rogers is crushing his recovery timeline, mindset strong and spirits high — though still sidelined from full drills. On the offensive line, Jayvin dominates right tackle reps while Nick Brooks closes in, and Will Sanders flexes versatility at both guard spots. Lotzeir Brooks is nearing full participation, EJ Crowell’s progress looks promising for Week 1, and Jeremiah Beaman’s injury status? More updates coming soon.
