Justin Eboigbe thanks Alabama strength coach for impressive physique and recovery
Gary Cosby Jr.-USA TODAY Sports

Alabama football has a much-needed veteran presence back on its defensive line.

Justin Eboigbe, a former four-star, returns for a fifth season as a defensive end. The native Georgian came in the 2019 class, but he missed much of last season because of a neck injury. Before the mishap, he totaled 11 tackles and two quarterback hurries in four games. Eboigbe collected 48 total tackles in his first three seasons. The 6-foot-5, 292-pounder has 41 games of experience under his belt and is ready to be impactful as a starter. He recently got cleared by the Crimson Tide’s medical staff for next season.

He thanks Uj Johnson, an Alabama strength coach, for his impressive physique and recovery.

Eboigbe knows this fall is his final opportunity to earn a strong NFL Draft stock. He is going after it now.
