Keon Keeley sealed Alabama football’s win over South Carolina when he got LaNorris Sellers down for a sack in the final seconds of the game.

Keeley continues his upward trajectory as he competes to get more snaps this season. He has recorded seven total tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks in a contributor role along the Tide’s defensive front through eight games.

Kalen DeBoer discussed Keeley carving out and building upon a role for himself Wednesday on “Hey Coach and The Kalen DeBoer Show.”

“He’s got the physical tools and is executing and getting the techniques down and really carving out a role, and building onto that role each and every week,” DeBoer said.
