Why Alabama decided to sign 2 2026 quarterbacks

Alabama football signed a pair of quarterbacks in the 2026 recruiting class on Wednesday.

Both Jett Thomalla and Tayden Kaawa signed National Letters of Intent to play football at the University of Alabama. This comes after the Crimson Tide signed one quarterback in Keelon Russell during the 2025 cycle.

Every scholarship quarterback on the Crimson Tide’s roster has eligibility remaining, raising questions about DeBoer and his staff’s strategy to add two signal callers in this class.

“You just don’t know what the future is,” DeBoer said on Wednesday after both quarterbacks signed.
