Name, image, and likeness (NIL) can be used in a positive way in college football, and two players for the University of Alabama are doing it the right way this summer.

Justice Haynes and Ryan Williams, two five-star athletes from high school, are teaming up to provide the Rising Tide Youth Football Camp on Saturday, July 22 at Hillcrest High School in Tuscaloosa, Ala.

According to Centric Sports Group, the camp is for ages 6-18 and goes from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Haynes and Williams want all youth to have fun, compete, and also learn more about football. You can register for the camp by going to centricsportsgroup.com.

Haynes, a sophomore running back, is anticipating a marquee second season at Alabama.

He totaled 168 yards rushing and three touchdowns in his freshman year. Haynes had some nice runs versus Michigan in the Rose Bowl matchup, so Tide fans are excited to see what he does in the fall. Williams, a true freshman, was a two-time “Mr. Football” winner for the state of Alabama at Saraland (Ala.) High School. He looks forward to being dynamic at Alabama.
