The Washington Football Team always seems to be the direct pipeline for former Alabama players to find their way into the NFL. Big names such as Landon Collins, Jonathan Allen, Daron Payne and more have made their way to Washington.
Not only do the players benefit by having a place to call home in the competitive league, but the team welcomes them in knowing they have a certain level of chemistry after either playing together or sharing similar experiences by playing under head coach Nick Saban.
Today, the Washington Football team announced their captains for the 2020 season and 40% of them are former members of the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Safety Landon Collins and defensive tackle Jonathan Allen were named captains by the team.
The two shared a little overlap during their time in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. However, Collins was drafted No. 33 overall in 2015 by the New York Giants and Allen was selected at No. 17 by Washington.
