Alabama true freshman defensive back Dijon Lee will be making his case this fall become an impact defensive player in the secondary.

A five-star recruit out of California, Lee brings tremendous length to the Crimson Tide cornerbacks room standing at six-feet and four inches, presenting a unique challenge for opposing wide receivers.

To tease his potential impact true freshman season, Lee shared a new in jersey photo shoot for Alabama fans to take a look.

The Crimson Tide are clearly no strangers to sending out freshmen to play in the secondary with Zabien Brown being the most recent example serving opposite of Domani Jackson. Even Alabama defensive coordinator Kane Wommack sees similarities in Lee and Brown.

“That’s always impressive to me when you can have a freshman compete in the SEC,” Wommack said back in the spring. “Obviously the measurables, the talent, the skill level, the discipline, he reminds me a little bit of Zabien (Brown) and how disciplined and detailed Zabien was when he got here. Mo Linguist does a tremendous job with that group in terms of building in the fundamentals and the discipline to do your job over and over again.”
