Alabama Updates Football Roster to Reveal New Heights, Weights Heading into Spring Camp
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — With spring camp set to begin next week, Alabama updated its roster to include its incoming transfers and early enrollees. The updated roster also includes new heights and weights for returning players.
Despite being added to the roster, the Crimson Tide’s early enrollees have yet to be assigned numbers. The same goes for its incoming transfers. However, the updated roster did provide some new information.
Along with bringing in three scholarship transfers in Georgia wide receiver Jermaine Burton, Georgia Tech running back Jahmyr Gibbs and LSU defensive back Eli Ricks, Alabama also added walk-on quarterback Blake Jarrett from Vanderbilt. Jarrett, a sophomore, will add more depth to a quarterback room that also includes reigning Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young as well as redshirt freshman Jalen Milroe and early enrollee Ty Simpson.
Another walk-on addition is Jax Porter, a freshman tight end who joins the team from IMG Academy. Porter, a Dallas native, had offers from Akron and SMU.
There were also some significant weight changes for Alabama’s returning players. Starting offensive lineman Emil Ekiyor Jr. dropped 17 pounds from last season and is now listed at 6-foot-3, 307 pounds. Backup offensive lineman Jaeden Roberts lost the most weight, dropping 26 pounds to put him at 6-foot-5, 302 pounds.
Redshirt freshman linebacker Keanu Koht put on the most weight, bulking up 11 pounds to fill out his 6-foot-4 frame at 231 pounds. Other notable weight-gainers include redshirt freshman offensive lineman Terrence Ferguson II (+10 pounds up to 6-foot-4, 300 pounds) as well as defensive linemen Tim Keenan III (+8 — 6-2, 343) and Justin Eboigbe (+7 — 6-5, 292). Sophomore receivers JoJo Earle (+7 — 5-10, 177), Agiye Hall (+7 — 6-3, 202) and Ja’Corey Brooks (+6 — 6-2, 196) also put on significant weight.
