A former four-star wide receiver is no longer on the Crimson Tide’s roster. Thaiu Jones-Bell, a native Floridian, came into Alabama’s 2020 recruiting class. The 6-foot, 190-pounder was a playmaker at Miami Carol City High School, but he could not break through as a consistent contributor for the Tide. Jones-Bell played in 12 career games and totaled just four catches.
