Alabama’s Swiss-army depth piece turned frontline enforcer
Dakota Ball’s Alabama story is all about versatility and grit: he bounced from tight end/H-back to defensive line, and in the 2016 season he logged 12 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, and 0.5 sacks while helping on special teams. He’s the kind of player coaches trust because he embraced a position switch, added toughness to the front, and still brought veteran dependability after a serious hand injury in 2016. If you want a disciplined, physical depth defender with real “team-first” buy-in, Ball is your guy.
