TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — University of Alabama senior tight end O.J. Howard has an interesting take on this year’s quarterback competition: There may not be just one clear winner.
“The quarterbacks, everybody’s looking good,” he said. “I’m just out there trying to run routes, so catching the ball, they gain confidence in me.
“But at the quarterback position, it’s going to be a great opportunity for a lot of guys to get some playing time. We’re going to see during the season.”
Regardless, the competition will begin in earnest on Saturday when the reigning national champions hold their first scrimmage of spring practices.
