Forristall joins a group of 114 candidates for the honor, which is given to the college football player who best combines exemplary community service with athletic and academic achievement.
Former Crimson Tide standout Barrett Jones won the award in 2011.
Forristall's community service work includes over 200 hours in the Tuscaloosa area, mission trips with the American Football Coaches Association and Fellowship of Christian Athletes, spending time in Costa Rica teaching the game of football and educating the community on healthy habits, and traveling to a Nicaraguan Refugee Camp.
He also has participated in hospital visits and other community service events during Alabama's bowl trips.
On the field, he caught 15 passes for 167 yards and four touchdowns last season in only nine games. As one of the more experienced tight ends on the roster for the Crimson Tide in 2020, Forristall will likely see his role expand.
A winner will be announced on Dec. 8 at a National Football Foundation press conference in New York City.
