Keon Sabb entered the NCAA transfer portal Friday, and Alabama football looks to be an early contender to land him.

Sabb is a former four-star recruit and IMG Academy product.

The rising junior played in 14 games as a sophomore during the 2023 football season and started in five. He finished the season with 28 total tackles and two interceptions. One of his best games of the season came in the National Championship against Washington when he had 6 tackles and two pass breakups.

An addition to the Crimson Tide’s secondary is something the Tide would most likely welcome after losing multiple starters and depth after Nick Saban retired. 

Sabb was recruited by Alabama when he was a recruit and Saban was the Tide’s head coach. He was recruited by the Tide’s general manager Courtney Morgan when Morgan was at Michigan.
