Alabama football will have multiple members of its 2025 recruiting class enroll during the summer.
Most of the Tide’s 2025 signing class is on campus as students at the University of Alabama. The remaining members are set to arrive this summer. Here is a look at those prospects.
Chuck McDonald
At 6-foot-1 and 190 pounds, McDonald fits the bill for what Alabama looks for in long defensive backs. He breaks on the ball with good closing speed and can make tackles close to the line of scrimmage with his anticipation skills. He also has impressive coverage skills with his ability to mirror wide receiver routes at times and his knack for jarring the ball away from wide receivers.

Kaleb Edwards
The 6-foot-6, 240-pounder is a complete tight-end recruit, who has experience lining up attached to the line of scrimmage and out wide. One of the biggest strengths of his game is how explosive he is out of his stance when he is along the offensive line and goes out for a pass. He is also one of the better route-running tight ends in the 2025 recruiting class. His ability to be a mismatch in coverage and his reliable hands make him a big get for the Tide.

London Simmons
Simmons was dominant throughout his high school football career with his explosive burst off the snap, power and impressive use of his hands. He does not have the length of the typical interior defensive lineman at about 6-foot-2, but he makes up for it with strength and ability to be explosive. He draws early comparison to Tim Keenan III.
