We now have a former Alabama football player in support of Mac Jones, and it is a quarterback.
Blake Sims, a native Georgian, arrived at the University of Alabama as an athlete in 2010.
He was the ultimate team player for the Crimson Tide under Nick Saban, serving at running back, wide receiver, kick returner, defensive back, scout-team quarterback and backup quarterback. His hard work earned him the starting job at quarterback over Jacob Coker, who came over from Florida State, in 2014. Sims was doubted a lot, especially in the passing game and reading defenses, but he proved everyone wrong that year with a single-season school record performance.
