Brody Dalton has decided on the next stop in his football tour around the state of Alabama.
First in Birmingham, then Troy and now Tuscaloosa. Dalton, a tight end, has decided to transfer to play for Alabama football, his manager Corey Williams told AL.com on Thursday night
Alabama also landed West Virginia tight end Jack Sammarco this week.
Dalton, a Fyffe native, began his collegiate career at UAB. He spent his freshman and redshirt freshman seasons with the Blazers. Then the 6-5, 250-pound tight end transferred to Troy, where he spent the past two seasons.
In 2024, Dalton started eight games, catching 15 receptions for 188 yards and three touchdowns, by far his most productive season as a pass catcher in college.
Dalton supplements a tight end room that sustained a handful of injuries in the spring. So much so that Jay Lindsey became the only healthy scholarship tight end by the time A-Day arrived. Josh Cuevas and Danny Lewis Jr. figure to lead the group in 2025 with the departure of CJ Dippre and Robbie Ouzts off to the NFL.
