He is the fifth player from the 2020 class, joining Drew Sanders, Jackson Bratton, Javon Baker, and Ronald Williams, that left Alabama via transfer portal. Sanders (Arkansas) and Williams (Michigan State) found new programs.

Bratton and Baker have not found a new place yet. Crimson Tide fans wish Edwards the best at SLU.
