Alabama football jersey rankings 61-65
No. 61: Anthony Steen
We are now safely in the linemen portion of the article. Anthony Steen was a starter for multiple seasons in the early 2010s. He was never an Outland recipient or anything, but he was a quality starter at guard. He is currently a free agent in the NFL, but he has played for multiple years with both the Dolphins and Cardinals. He might not be the freakish talent of Jonah Williams, but he is definitely a success story.
No. 62: Terrence Cody
Terrence Cody is more legend than liquidity. When you talk about him as a player, you will almost certainly overhype him. This is because of what he did in certain moments. He will always be known as the man who blocked Tennessee’s potential game-winning kick in Saban’s undefeated season, a play that I literally have framed on my bedroom wall. Without that block, Alabama probably doesn’t play in their first national championship game. Outside of that play, there wasn’t a lot to back up his claim as one of the best lineman Saban has coached. He’s historic, but there’s not much else to him. Still the best No. 62 in the game, though.
No. 63: J.C. Hassenauer
J.C. Hassenauer was a center for the Tide. He was mostly a reserve. He played in a lot of games, but wasn’t the chosen starter. After trying to make an NFL team, he had to settle for a starting role with the Birmingham Iron. His brief stint with Birmingham earned him another chance in the NFL, however, as he hopes to make the game-day roster with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
No. 64: Kerry Murphy
Another number without a lot of key talent, Murphy was supposed to be the next big thing at defensive lineman. I mean this quite literally, as the man was well over 300 pounds. However, he just never seemed to pan out as a prospect. When he was recruited, he was a huge get. However, it just never worked out. This is the tough pain of recruiting. Sometimes things just don’t work out.
No. 65: Chance Warmack
Chance Warmack is one of the better-known guards from Alabama. When he played in college, he was famous for tucking his shirt into his shoulder pads and exposing his stomach during games. He did it before Zeke Elliot made it popular. He was also a quality guard. However, his NFL career might officially be over now that his contract is up and he hasn’t yet found another team.
