When the Crimson Tide take the field in 2022, they will be on a mission to re-stake their claim to the College Football Playoff national championship trophy after narrowly missing their chance to repeat in 2021 with a loss to Georgia in the title game.
The secondary is returning some studs and gaining some valuable experience at the same time, which should lead to Alabama having one of their better defensive secondaries in recent years. The addition of Eli Ricks to the defensive backfield will certainly bolster the ranks of a secondary that definitely struggled at times throughout the 2021 season.
After the departures of Jalyn Armour-Davis (draft), Josh Jobe(draft) and Marcus Banks (transfer), there are some holes that need to be filled, but the spots should be filled by very capable athletes that understand their assignments.
Let’s preview every player in the Alabama secondary, starting with my predicted starters for the 2022 season.
