Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback trending for starting job ahead of FSU football matchup.
Florida State’s high-profile season-opener against the Alabama Crimson Tide draws closer by the day. The Crimson Tide recently wrapped up spring practice and they’ve got a big question to answer with former starting quarterback Jalen Milroe headed to the NFL.
Alabama has been searching for its next signal-caller ahead of head coach Kalen DeBoer’s second season in Tuscaloosa. The program opted not to pursue a quarterback in the transfer portal, instead trusting that returners such as Ty Simpson and Austin Mack alongside high school signee Keelon Russell would be enough.
Leading up to the fall, the Crimson Tide appear to have a front-runner for the starting job. Offensive coordinator Ryan Grubbs said that if Alabama was playing a game tomorrow, redshirt junior Ty Simpson would command the offense.
“At the end of the day, if we’re playing a football game tomorrow, Ty Simpson would start and he earned that,” Grubb said. “I know that’s the line that everybody is looking for but that is what he earned.”
Simpson is entering his fourth season with the program and he served as the primary backup in 2024. He was a five-star prospect in the 2022 class. Simpson has seen action in 16 games, completing 29/50 passes for 381 yards while rushing 22 times for 130 yards and three touchdowns.
“And by no means does that mean we’re playing a game tomorrow. I think there’s still a lot of work to be done. I think the message, really, is we’ve got to be even better,” Grubb added. “The guys, I know they’ll take that the right way and they understand those things, but essentially we’re not gonna be satisfied with the quarterback room until it’s how it’s supposed to be.
“It wasn’t perfect this spring, but I thought we were trending the right way the entire time,” Grubbs continued. “The competitive spirit and the acknowledge of each other as a competitor in that room was very mature honestly and it could’ve been very different than that. I’m blessed to work with those guys every day, I’m fired up, we’ve got three really good quarterbacks.”
