Alabama football will rely on the secondary in 2021
In the 2020 offseason, Alabama football lost four of their five starters in the secondary. With minimal experience, the Tide began the year with a weakness at this position. However, it will be a strength in 2021.
Alabama is returning almost every defensive back from the 2020 roster. The only starter leaving will be Patrick Surtain. He was the best corner in college football, but the unit around him improved as the season progressed.
That improvement starts with Malachi Moore.
