Alabama OL Tyler Booker declares for 2025 NFL Draft

Alabama offensive lineman Tyler Booker has declared for the 2025 NFL Draft. Booker spent three seasons with the Crimson Tide.

“Thank you to my family!” Booker wrote. “Thank you for believing in my dream just as much if not more than I have. All the investments y’all have made into my future have allowed me to pursue all of my goals and I will never forget how hard yall have worked for me to be where I am. With that being said I will be declaring for the 2025 NFL Draft.

“It has been an honor to be a captain and a graduate at The University of Alabama. Although I will be moving on to my next step in life, a piece of me will always be in Tuscaloosa. Roll Tide Roll.”

In his three seasons at Alabama, Booker made 37 appearances and 27 starts. He played and started in all 13 of Alabama’s games this season. Booker finished the year with a team-high 87 knockdown blocks (7.3 per game) across 653 snaps of play.

The 6-foot-5, 325-pound standout was a permanent team captain for the Crimson Tide this season. For his excellent play, he was named a First-Team All-SEC selection and a first team All-American by both CBS Sports and USA Today.

Additionally, Booker was recognized as the SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week three times this season (Missouri, LSU and Auburn). Tyler Booker gave no shortage of thanks in his statement announcing his decision to enter the draft.

“Glory be to God because without him none of this would be possible!” Booker wrote. “My Brothers on the field have become my brothers in life! The love and bond that we have created will go far beyond the game of football! I am very thankful for yall!

“Thank you to Coach Saban, Coach Deboer and their staffs for giving me the opportunity to
create value for myself and better myself as an athlete but more importantly as a Man. I have called Tuscaloosa home for the past three years and it will be home for the rest of my life. I am forever grateful for the community welcoming me with open arms and supporting me through the ups and the downs!”

Now, Alabama fans will continue to support Booker as he looks to enter the next phase of his career. The 2025 NFL Draft is set for April 24-26 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
