Alabama football’s starting safety, Keon Sabb is eligible to declare for the NFL Draft, but he could also return to Alabama for another year.
Sabb returned to the Tide this season after suffering a season-ending injury in 2024. He was a dependable member of Kane Wommack’s defense throughout the year. He started in every game.
Sabb was asked if he had made a decision on his future after the Tide lost to Indiana.
“I haven’t made any decisions yet,” Sabb said. “Truly was thinking about Indiana. Now that the season is over, get with my family, talk over things and figure out what’s the best decision for me.”
No Alabama underclassmen have announced a decision on whether they will stay at Alabama or move on to the NFL as of 12 p.m. CST on Jan. 3.
