He will be an All-American offensive lineman before his collegiate career ends for the Crimson Tide, but Tyler Booker is an even better person.

Booker, a former five-star in the 2022 recruiting class, concludes his freshman season by giving back to his community in New Haven, Conn. He partnered with the Firebirds Society of New Haven and Goodwill Industries International to provide coats and toys to families in need this Christmas season. Booker held the toy drive dropoff on Friday, Dec, 9, and he accomplished his goal.
