Alabama lands 4 players on 2021 FWAA All-America Team
Alabama players continue to get well-deserved recognition for their outstanding performances this season. On Friday, four Crimson Tide standouts made the 2021 Football Writers of America All-America Team.
Two of those came on offense, one on defense and one on special teams.
The two offensive players, unsurprisingly, were quarterback Bryce Young and offensive tackle Evan Neal. Both Young and Neal have been instrumental to Alabama fielding the No. 4 scoring offense, averaging 42.5 points per game, and the No. 6 offense in total yardage per game (495.5).
