2025 Alabama Football star Ty Simpson has until Jan. 14 to enter the 2026 NFL Draft. According to al.com's Nick Kelly, Simpson will make a decision before then. A decision is expected by the end of this week. Simpson will receive plenty of NFL feedback. Kelly, like others, believes a high probability of being selected in the first round would mean the end of Ty's Alabama career.
If Simpson leaves, there should be a good chance that Austin Mack and Keelon Russell stick with the Tide to compete for next season's starting job. There are three other possible scenarios.
