Another Alabama offensive lineman is reportedly leaving the football program.
Redshirt sophomore Brandon Kennedy is transferring, according to AL.com’s Matt Zenitz. The reserve lineman will be immediately eligible at his next stop as a graduate transfer.
Kennedy was the Crimson Tide’s backup center a season ago and during the team’s 15 spring practices. Last year, he saw action in three games off the bench against Fresno State, Vanderbilt and Ole Miss but suffered a season-ending foot injury early in the year that limited his playing time. Because of that, Kennedy received a medical redshirt at season’s end.
The Wetumpka, Ala., native played in seven games as a redshirt freshman in 2016. He saw his first career action in the season opener versus USC, playing six snaps in the fourth quarter.
Kennedy is the second reserve offensive lineman to transfer from Alabama of late, joining Dallas Warmack. Like Warmack, Kennedy was part of the Crimson Tide’s 2015 recruiting class. With them leaving, only nine of the 24 members of that class are still at UA.
Kennedy, Warmack and linebacker Mekhi Brown have all transferred this offseason.
A 4-star prospect out of Wetumpka High School, Kennedy was the No. 10-ranked player in the state of Alabama, the No. 19 offensive guard and No. 296 overall prospect in the 2015 recruiting cycle, according to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite rankings.
With the two linemen transfers, Alabama will have 16 offensive linemen on its roster for 2018 after its two signees from its 2018 signing class arrive on the Tide campus this summer.
Note: This puts UA's fall roster at 84 scholarship players, including Juco transfer Tevita Musika.
ETA: Best wishes for Dallas and Brandon.
