LB Joshua McMillon, redshirt senior

McMillon is the old man in Alabama’s inside linebacker room. He spent the spring practicing at the Will linebacker position with the first-team defense opposite Dylan Moses and should start camp there, too.

This offseason, Saban commended McMillon for understanding “what he has to do to be successful at the position” but whether he can play with the necessary consistency “remains to be seen.”

McMillon will have to hold off younger linebackers like Markail Benton, Ale Kaho, Jaylen Moody and even Shane Lee, but he has a chance to finally crack the starting lineup.

TE Cameron Latu, redshirt freshman

Latu, a former outside linebacker, spent the spring with the tight ends. But what initially looked like a spring experiment is now looking like a permanent move for the Salt Lake City, Utah, native. That’s because Alabama’s tight end depth is even thinner now than it was in April after the transfer of Kedrick James to SMU.

Miller Forristall will be the No. 1 option at the position, but Latu will have an opportunity to secure the second tight end spot following a productive spring. If he can continue to progress at tight end, the second-year player could claim a spot with the ones.
