Seven student-athletes off the Crimson Tide’s roster were selected to the first-team. The group of Mac Jones, Najee Harris, DeVonta Smith, Landon Dickerson, Alex Leatherwood, Patrick Surtain II and Dylan Moses were honored. For Jones, he joins Harris, Smith, Dickerson, Leatherwood and Surtain as a Consensus All-American.

When it comes to Harris, Smith, Dickerson, Leatherwood and Surtain, the Walter Camp Football Foundation (WCFF) is the final selector they need to become Unanimous All-Americans.
All five made a first-team list for the AP, Sporting News, FWAA and AFCA to this point. As for Moses, the AFCA becomes the first selector to name the senior as a first-team All-American.
