Alabama’s Ben Davis cracks two-deep rotation at linebacker

It took a minute, but the moment has arrived for Ben Davis.

Upon the depth chart for Alabama football being handed out on Monday, the first thing that caught the attention of media pundits was his name making the two-deep rotation at linebacker for this season.

The former five-star out of the 2016 class was the nation’s top inside linebacker prospect on every site.

He was labeled a “can’t miss” product from Gordo (Ala.) High School and as the son of Wayne Davis, the Crimson Tide’s all-time leader in tackles (327), Tide fans expected greatest from Ben.
