Alabama starting offensive lineman catches up with NFL Pro Bowl guard

Michael Carroll recently reconnected with Landon Dickerson.

Carroll is expected to start for the Crimson Tide this fall along its offensive line in his second season in the program. Dickerson is a multiple-time Pro Bowl left guard for the Philadelphia Eagles and a former Crimson Tide offensive lineman. He was a member of the Tide’s 2020 National Championship team.

The pair first connected when Carroll was a college prospect visiting the University of Alabama. It looks as if Dickerson was able to impart some knowledge during their recent meeting.

“Thankful to spend time with my guy,” Carroll posted to X.
