We highlight one in this piece to represent 36 days away from the Crimson Tide’s season. Ian Jackson, a former four-star, hails from Prattville, Ala. He redshirted his freshman season and played three games in 2022. Jackson worked on special teams as a redshirt freshman, but he came in as a talented linebacker.
