Alabama fans know Will Anderson and Dallas Turner, but they are about to become familiar with Chris Braswell.
As a third-year linebacker from Maryland, Braswell is excited to unleash his skill set in the fall. He has waited patiently for an opportunity to pressure quarterbacks, and Braswell has earned Nick Saban’s trust. The 6-foot-3, 240-pounder came in the Crimson Tide’s 2020 signing class as a five-star. He brings strength, speed, and pass-rush moves to offset offensive linemen.
Last week, he described his playing style to Stephen M. Smith of Touchdown Alabama Magazine via In My Own Words.
“I feel like I bring speed and power to the game,” Braswell said. “I love getting to the quarterback, and that’s my No. 1 goal. I love hitting the quarterback, and the crowd going wild. Getting to the quarterback is my goal, but I bring speed, power, and I have a lot of moves that I have been working on. We will see how it goes.”
Braswell was a pass-rushing machine at St. Frances Academy. It is going to be exciting to watch what he does this season.
