Keelon Russell Shines in Debut | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Alabama’s sophomore QB Keelon Russell stunned everyone in his first career start, throwing for 250+ yards and rushing for a TD, nearly tying Bryce Young’s freshman record. Scouts are buzzing—some calling him “far more advanced” than most sophomores, even comparing him to Jayden Daniels. Though he didn’t throw a TD, Russell looked poised, mobile, and in control as Alabama rolled up nearly 500 yards. But don’t get too excited yet—this was against a weak opponent at home. The real test? His SEC road debut against Kentucky this Saturday. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
