Darrian Dalcourt is one of three players out for spring practice, but he and Seth McLaughlin are back for Alabama at the offensive controls.

Dalcourt won the starting job during fall camp in 2021 and made 11 starts. He executed 15 knockdown blocks in 713 snaps, but Dalcourt surrendered 5.5 sacks, 2.5 quarterback hits, and two quarterback pressures. He had problems snapping the ball consistently earlier in the season.
