Kalen DeBoer gave the early nod to Ty Simpson in the Alabama QB competition, speaking to a high level of confidence in his new starting QB.
On Monday, Kalen DeBoer introduced Ty Simpson to the team as Alabama's starting quarterback. It's a job Simpson has earned and long waited for. The redshirt junior beat out redshirt sophomore Austin Mack and true freshman Keelon Russell to win the job.
For DeBoer, this was the third legitimate QB competition in his short time as an FBS head coach.
