Louisville transfer Tyler Harrell is expected to visit Alabama this weekend, according to multiple reports. The incoming junior entered the transfer portal earlier this week after spending two seasons on the field with the Cardinals.

The six-foot, 194-pound wide receiver averaged 29.1 yards per catch last season on just 18 receptions. Harrell finished with a total of 523 yards and six touchdowns, with all but one of his scores coming against conference opponents. Before the 2021 season, Harrell had only appeared in four games, split between 2018 and 2019. He did not see game action during the 2020 season.

Harrell was ranked a three-star prospect coming out of Columbus High School in Miami. He ranked as the No. 125 player from his home state of Florida. According to the On3 transfer portal rankings, Harrell ranks as the No. 111 wide receiver in this year’s transfer portal cycle. Thanks to his speed, coaches will be lining up to talk to the now-former Louisville player.
