Tight End

Starter: Cameron Latu
Backup: Robbie Ouzts

This is one position that the Crimson Tide are not going to have to worry about. Cameron Latu stepped up as the starting tight end for them and was one of the best in the country.

Whether it’s blocking or being a nice option for Bryce Young to throw to, Latu was continuously dependable. Expect to see even more improvement out of him this season and really take his game to another level.

However, behind Latu, it is a little more uncertain. Jahleel Billingsly decided to transfer to Texas, leaving the backup spot to be wide open. One guy that can look to fill that role is Robbie Ouzts. While Ouzts only has one career catch, he has potential.

Alabama uses multiple tight end sets and will need a second tight end to emerge from their group.
