Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Brody Dalton
During the spring transfer portal window, there simply was not much action from the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Not only did Alabama not lose anyone to the portal, but the Crimson Tide also added only two transfers during the window as well, both of which were tight ends.
One of those two was Brody Dalton, a transfer addition from within the state of Alabama where he played previously at Troy, and brings a significant amount of collegiate experience to the Crimson Tide's tight end room.
Let's take a look at everything you need to know about Alabama's newest tight end, Brody Dalton, entering the 2025 season.

Brody Dalton 2025 season outlook
A position group that is loaded with options, it feels likely that Dalton plays a role for the Crimson Tide at some point in 2025.
However, as to what that role is currently likely comes as an unknown, as both Josh Cuevas and Danny Lewis Jr. are at the moment expected to start, while others such as Kaleb Edwards are other options. Based on his experience though, it feels likely that Dalton will see time for the Crimson Tide this season, potentially coming in a notable role as both a pass catcher and blocker.
Overall, expect Dalton to play a role in some form for the Crimson Tide this fall, providing depth and experience.
