REPORT: Alabama WR Chadarius Townsend to transfer

A day after losing wide receiver Tyrell Shavers to Mississippi State, Alabama is set to lose WR/RB Chadarius Townsend.

Just one day after it was reported that former Alabama wide receiver Tyrell Shavers was leaving the program and transferring to SEC West rival Mississippi State, it has been reported that Chadarius Townsend will also be departing.

Townsend has spent time at Alabama practicing as a wide receiver, a running back and a defensive back.

Matt Zenitz of AL.com was the first to report on his intent to transfer.

Townsend, an in-state recruit who joined Alabama in 2016 as a four-star athlete, will be immediately eligible to play as a graduate transfer.
