ESPN recently predicted every starting quarterback for each Power Four School in 2025 and went with Ty Simpson for Alabama.
Simpson will be a redshirt junior next season for the Crimson Tide. He is currently the most experienced quarterback on the Crimson Tide’s roster as the former five-star has served as the Tide’s primary back up in back-to-back seasons.
The Tennessee product saw action in six games while playing behind Jalen Milroe in 2024. He threw for 167 yards on 14 completions to go along with 44 rushing yards and a score.
Simpson’s most meaningful snaps during his time at Alabama came against USF during the 2023 season. He took over at quarterback after Tyler Buchner got off to an undesirable start, and Simpson led Alabama to a win over the Bulls, completing five passes for 73 yards and running in a score.
The quarterback battle in Tuscaloosa will garner a lot of attention in the coming months.
