As we continue through the offseason, Roll Tide Wire has decided to bring fans a quick snapshot of each scholarship player listed on Alabama’s 2020 football roster.
Each day, we’ll release two player profiles giving fans a glimpse into the players who will be available this upcoming season. Whether that’s size, classification, hometowns or recruiting rankings coming out of high school, we’ve got you covered.
Also included in each article is a quick recap letting you know what to expect from that player for the upcoming 2020 season and beyond.
Next up on the list is redshirt senior tight end Giles Amos out of Perry (Ga.).
Giles Amos, Tight Ends
Height: 6-4 / Weight: 245
Class: Redshirt Senior
Hometown: Perry (Ga.)
High School: Westfield High School
HS ranking (247Sports): 0-star / N/A overall / N/A WR / N/A GA
HS ranking (Rivals): 0-star / N/A overall / N/A WR / N/A GA
Analysis: As of right now, it’s unlikely that Giles Amos is on the Alabama roster for the 2020 season. The former walk-on tight end is currently in the transfer portal and looking for a new home, after all.
The decision to finish his career elsewhere makes sense, as his chances at meaningful playing time were diminished by the additions of North Carolina grad transfer Carl Tucker and three-star freshman Caden Clark out of Akron (Ohio).
Whether he sticks around or not, it’s always nice to see player who wasn’t highly recruited create for himself as a non-scholarship athlete, which is exactly what Amos did during his time in Tuscaloosa.
