The University of Alabama football program has made it clear that they love and support their players, even when they make it to the NFL.
Whether it be allowing them to come train with the team when they are back in town, use their facilities, or even mailing them Alabama gear, Alabama football knows how to show their former players how much they support them.
Former Alabama cornerback Marlon Humphrey showed off his gear that he received from Bama on Twitter on Tuesday.
And let’s just say, I am beyond jealous of the gear he got.
The sweatshirts, shorts, t-shirts, and hats are awesome!
Check it out for yourself!

Humphrey has had quite the week!
He signed a 5 year, $98 million dollar contract earlier this week, and he’s worth every penny.
This contract extension will make Humphrey the second highest-paid cornerbacks in the league according to Spotrac. The only player with a contract worth more than Humphrey’s is Los Angeles Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey who has a five-year, $100 million deal.
Marlon, who has become a huge defensive asset for the Ravens, had his fifth year option picked up by the Ravens in April.
Humphrey was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens as the 16th overall pick of the 2017 NFL Draft.
Humphrey finished his career at Alabama with 81 tackles, 13 deflected passes, 5 interceptions, 3 forced fumbles and 1 TD.
Last season for the Ravens, Humphrey became a huge defensive asset for the Ravens.
Week 5 of last season, Humphrey had a huge defensive play that helped the Ravens go on to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers. Humphrey punched out and recovered a fumble in overtime to set up the game-winning field goal by Justin Tucker.
But that’s not all. He also had a fumble recovery and touchdown that sealed the win against Seattle. Against the New England Patriots, he returned a fumble for a touchdown as well.
So far in his career in the NFL and for the Ravens, he has recorded 150 tackles (124 solo), 44 deflected passes, 8 interceptions, 9 stuffs, 4 forced fumbles, 0.5 sacks, 1 blocked kick, and 3 fumble recoveries.
