Alabama LB Chris Braswell highlights several NFL pass rushers that influence his game

Chris Braswell enters his third season for Alabama football, but he’s ready to become impactful.

He arrived as a five-star linebacker in the 2020 class from Maryland.

Braswell had success at St. Frances Academy, but he’s earned Nick Saban’s trust as an outside linebacker. The 6-foot-3, 240-pounder totaled 13 tackles, a tackle for loss, two quarterback hurries, and a blocked punt in 2021. He is prepared to be the third piece of a pass-rushing trio with Will Anderson and Dallas Turner. Braswell was featured this week on In My Own Words with Stephen M. Smith of Touchdown Alabama Magazine.
