Alabama tight end Amari Niblack ‘can be an offensive weapon’ per Nick Saban

Alabama fans want more playmakers on offense, but another young name looks to emerge.

Amari Niblack, a freshman, is a versatile player. The 6-foot-4, 225-pounder can play tight end, H-back, and wide receiver.

As a South Florida native, Niblack arrived in the summer for the 2022 class as a four-star.

He brings speed, routes, big hands, athleticism, and playmaking capabilities. The Crimson Tide has a do-it-all player at the position in Cameron Latu, but there is nothing wrong with a team having several dynamic options. Latu is better at blocking; however, Alabama can have Niblack focus mainly on the vertical passing attack.
