Alabama football’s freshman quarterback, Keelon Russell has not stopped recruiting for the Crimson Tide after enrolling in January. 

Russell now has his eyes on 2026 five-star wide receiver, Tristen Keys.

The freshman signal caller encouraged the five-star to get to Tuscaloosa in a recent post to his Instagram story.

Keys is considering Alabama and several other SEC programs. He plans to officially visit the Crimson Tide and respects their tradition of producing wideouts. 

“They produce a lot of great receivers, and it’s a lot of WRUs, but I feel like that’s one of them,” Keys told Touchdown Alabama. “They have produced a lot of first-round receivers.”
