Four Alabama Crimson Tide Players in Senior Bowl, Audition for NFL Scouts

@chrischatsports

Saturday is the 76th Annual Senior Bowl in lovely Mobile, Alabama. After many decades at Ladd–Peebles Stadium, the game is now played at the University of South Alabama’s newish stadium since 2021.

The two teams are the American (AFC) and the National (NFC) with coaching staffs made up of NFL coaches. Cleveland Browns Assistant Head Coach and Special Teams Coordinator Bubba Ventrone leads the American team and New York Giants Offensive Coordinator Mike Kafka heads up the National team. Instead of full coaching staffs from one NFL team, the Senior Bowl moved to is a mix of assistants from all non-playoff teams.

This game is an All-Star game, but the real purposes are for players to prep for the NFL Draft and impress scouts as well as for scouts to get a first look at guys up close and personal. Spending a whole week working with prospects in a camp atmosphere is much better than the outdated “Underwear Olympics” that is the NFL Combine.
