Tyler Booker names OL Alabama fans should be excited about: ‘he wants to be great’

Tyler Booker feels Alabama football’s offensive lineman, Will Sanders has an opportunity to do great things in Tuscaloosa. 

Sanders is a product of the Tuscaloosa, Alabama area and a former four-star offensive lineman. 

The Alabama native played in two games for Alabama as a freshman in 2024, seeing action against Western Kentucky and Mercer. 

Booker feels more playing time is headed to the 6-foot-3, 309-pounder. 

“You’ll be hearing about Will Sanders,” Booker said at the NFL Combine. “That’s a guy who’s an Alabama native. He didn’t, he didn’t have the biggest name coming out, but he’s somebody who works hard every single day. He’ll be borderline annoying sometimes. Just ask me, ‘how did I look? how I look?’ But I appreciate that from him because he just had a want to learn. He wants to learn all the time. He loves the game of football. You could tell he loves the game of football and he wants to be great…I’m very excited to see how Will progresses over the next couple years. I’ll always be rooting for that guy. He’s a great guy and a great football player.”

Alabama begins spring practice Monday, and Sanders will have a shot at getting closer to getting in the field for the Tide.
