Alabama's 2026 roster is set to undergo significant change this offseason. Here is a tracker of the Crimson Tide's roster throughout the offseason.

Alabama has made a switch at quarterback to backup Austin Mack. What to know of the Crimson Tide signal-caller:

If Simpson stays, things get complicated. Alabama could lose Mack, Russell, or both. And don’t forget: the Tide signed two freshmen quarterbacks in the 2026 class — Jett Thomalla and Tayden Kaawa.

The 2026 college football transfer portal officially opened Friday, and chaos is an understatement. More than 3,700 Division I scholarship players entered the portal on Day 1, kicking off a flurry of movement that has already reshaped rosters and set off a domino effect across the sport.

The Miami Dolphins are benching sixth-year quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Wednesday, one day after coach Mike McDaniel told reporters that "everything's on the table" after his team's 28-15 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football.

With Ty Sampson struggling with a back injury, Austin Mack stepped in at quarterback for the Crimson Tide and Alabama's offense remained stagnant. He completed 11-of-16 passes for 103 yards and was constantly under pressure from Indiana's defense, sending pressure with the game script heavily tilted in the Hoosiers favor.

Indiana looked every bit the part of a No. 1 seed in a dominant victory over Alabama in the Rose Bowl College Football Playoff quarterfinal

Before the portal opens and preparation begins for the 2026 season, Alabama still has a chance to accomplish its goals in 2025. The Crimson Tide beat Oklahoma in the first round of the CFP in Norman to earn the chance to face No .1 Indiana Thursday in the Rose Bowl.
