With transfer season in full swing, Alabama is set for a busy offseason with departures and new additions as it looks to build up its roster ahead of the 2025 campaign.

The winter transfer portal will run from Dec. 9-28, with another spring window open from April 16-25, 2025. The Tide will look to replenish some holes in its roster during both periods, while a few Alabama players will also look toward opportunities elsewhere.

Tide Illustrated's transfer portal tracker will have the latest updates on Crimson Tide players in the portal throughout the entire window. Here's the latest on Alabama's comings and goings during the winter window.

Alabama added some depth at the tight end position ahead of next season. The Tide received a commitment from Weber State tight end Peter Knudson in the transfer portal.

Knudson made 12 appearances and logged 356 snaps during his junior season. He racked up nine catches for 63 yards for the Wildcats at the FCS level.

The 6-foot-4, 240-pound junior will have one season of eligibility remaining.

Alabama added some depth at running back in the transfer portal. The Crimson Tide received a commitment from Louisiana running back Dre'lyn Washington.

Washington had 73 carries for 478 yards and five touchdowns in his redshirt junior campaign with the Ragin' Cajuns. He took a visit to Alabama over the weekend after the dead period concluded Jan. 1.

Washington will have one year of eligibility remaining in Tuscaloosa. The Tide is set to return leading rusher Jam Miller along with redshirt sophomore Richard Young and redshirt freshmen Daniel Hill and Kevin Riley. Alabama also added four-star Akylin Dear in the Class of 2025.

Alabama has lost another linebacker, as Justin Okoronkwo entered the transfer portal Sunday night. The rising sophomore played in all 13 games last season and will have three years of eligibility at his next school.

Okoronkwo saw defensive snaps in just seven games but was a member of both kickoff and punt units on special teams. He recorded 14 tackles, including 0.5 stops for a loss. The Munich, Germany native signed with Alabama as a three-star recruit in last year’s class.

Okoronkwo's decision comes after fellow inside linebackers Jeremiah Alexander and Sterling Dixon entered the transfer portal earlier this weekend.

Alabama is set to lose its starting right tackle, as Elijah Pritchett announced on Saturday that he plans to enter the transfer portal. Pritchett started 12 games over 13 appearances this past season. The rising redshirt junior will have two years of eligibility at his next school.

Pritchett struggled in his first season as a starter this fall. According to Pro Football Focus, the 6-foot-6, 327-pound lineman led the team allowing 31 pressures and six sacks. He also ranked last among Alabama’s starting linemen with a 51.8 run-blocking mark.

Pritchett thought about transferring from Alabama during the 2023 season but elected to return for the 2024 campaign. The Columbus, Georgia native signed with the Tide as the top-rated offensive tackle and No. 22 overall player in the 2022 class.

Alabama is already losing its starting left guard, as Tyler Booker declared for the NFL draft. Pritchett is set to be Alabama’s second transfer departure from the offensive line, as Miles McVay left for North Carolina.

The Tide added four freshman signings on the offensive line in five-star talent Michael Carroll as well as four-stars Jackson Llyod Micah Debose and Mal Waldrep. Alabama also added Texas A&M transfer Kam Dewberry and Ball State transfer Arkel Anugwom from the portal.

With Pritchett gone, Alabama will likely turn to Wilkin Formby at the right tackle role.

Alabama linebacker Sterling Dixon is expected to enter the transfer portal, according to a report. Dixon made three appearances for the Tide this season.

A four-star recruit in the Class of 2024, Dixon was the No. 169 player and the No. 6 outside linebacker in the Class of 2024. His lone snap on defense came in Alabama's season opener against Western Kentucky.

Alabama tight end Ty Lockwood is expected to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. Lockwood made seven appearances over two seasons for the Crimson Tide.

A four-star recruit in the Class of 2023, Lockwood signed for Alabama from Independence High School in Thompsons Station, Tennessee. He appeared in two games before redshirting his freshman season and got his first career catch against Mercer last season.

Alabama now has five scholarship tight ends on its roster, including returners Josh Cuevas, Danny Lewis and Jay Lindsey as well as incoming freshmen Marshall Pritchett and Kaleb Edwards.

Alabama has added another reinforcement to its offensive line ahead of the 2025 season. The Crimson Tide landed a commitment from Ball State offensive lineman Arkel Anugwom on Friday.

Anugwom made for appearances, including one start for the Cardinals as a redshirt freshman in 2024. He played all 100 of his snaps at left tackle for the Cardinals last season and logged 42.5 pass block and 64 run block grades from Pro Football Focus. He will have three seasons of eligibility remaining.

Alabama safety King Mack is expected to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. Mack appeared in eight games this season after joining the Tide from Penn State last offseason.

A four-star recruit in the Class of 2022, Mack played 96 defensive snaps and tallied 14 tackles during his lone season at Alabama. Mack will have two years of eligibility remaining at his next destination.

Alabama is expected to lose redshirt sophomore linebacker Jeremiah Alexander to the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. Alexander appeared in nine games this season working in on defense and contributing on special teams.

A five-star recruit in the Class of 2022, Alexander was the No. 6 player in the class and the No. 1 player from Alabama out of Thompson High School in Alabaster, Alabama. Alexander totaled eight tackles over his three seasons in Tuscaloosa.

Alabama is expected to lose freshman edge rusher Jayshawn Ross to the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. The outside linebacker appeared in just five snaps during the Crimson Tide’s win over Mercer this season and will have four years of eligibility at his next school.

Ross signed with Alabama as the No. 224 overall player and No. 13 weakside defensive end on the 2024 class. He chose the Tide over Florida State, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Penn State and Tennessee.

Alabama will see yet another receiver exit for the transfer portal, as Amari Jefferson announced his plans to leave the program on Friday. The Chattanooga, Tennessee native redshirted during his first season with the Crimson Tide and will have four years of eligibility remaining at his next school.

Jefferson signed with the Tide as the No. 42 wide receiver in the 2024 class. He did not see the field this past season.

Jefferson will be the sixth Alabama receiver to leave for the transfer portal, joining Jaren Hamilton, Emmanuel Henderson (Kansas), Kendrick Law (Kentucky), Caleb Odom (Ole Miss) and Kobe Prentice (Baylor).

Alabama added Miami transfer Isaiah Horton and appears set to move five-star cornerback Jaylen Mbakwe to the receiver position this year. The Tide also signed a pair of 2025 receivers in Derek Meadows and Lotzeir Brooks.

Alabama is set to lose another receiver as Jaren Hamilton told Rivals that he is entering the transfer portal. The redshirt freshman will have three years of eligibility at his next school.

Hamilton appeared in four games this season without recording any stats. He was one of four active scholarship receivers available for Alabama’s loss to Michigan in the ReliaQuest Bowl. The Gainesville, Florida native, signed with Alabama as a four-star recruit in the 2023 class.

Hamilton will be the fifth Alabama receiver to leave for the transfer portal, joining Emmanuel Henderson (Kansas), Kendrick Law (Kentucky), Caleb Odom (Ole Miss) and Kobe Prentice (Baylor).

Alabama added Miami transfer Isaiah Horton and appears set to move five-star cornerback Jaylen Mbakwe to the receiver position this year. The Tide also signed a pair of 2025 receivers in Derek Meadows and Zoteier Brooks.

Alabama addressed one of its biggest offseason needs Saturday by plucking former Colorado inside linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green from the transfer portal. The graduate transfer will have one season of eligibility remaining with the Crimson Tide.

Hill-Green earned second-team All-Big 12 honors during his lone season in Colorado this year. The 6-foot-2, 230-pound defender finished second on the team with 82 tackles and 11.5 stops for a loss. He also recorded a pair of sacks, and two interceptions to go with four pass breakups.

Hill-Green is Alabama’s fourth scholarship commitment from the transfer portal, joining edge rusher Kelby Collins (Florida), cornerback Cameron Calhoun (Utah) and wide receiver Isaiah Horton (Miami). The Tide also added a pair of preferred walk-ons in punter Blake Doud (Colorado Mines) and long snapper David Bird (California).

Alabama added some reinforcement to its offensive line. The Crimson Tide landed a commitment from Texas A&M lineman Kam Dewberry.

Dewberry joined the Aggies as the No. 56 recruit and No. 5 offensive tackle in the Class of 2022. He appeared in 11 games last season, playing four at right guard, five at right guard and made two appearances at left tackle. Dewberry logged a 51 pass block and a 58.4 run block grade from Pro Football Focus playing 379 snaps.

Dewberry will have one year of eligibility remaining with the Tide.

Alabama got a boost to its secondary Wednesday. The Crimson Tide added Utah cornerback Cam Calhoun from the transfer portal.

Calhoun had 21 tackles, nine pass deflections and an interception during his freshman season at Utah. He was a four-star recruit and the No. 33 corner in the Class of 2023 out of Winton Woods (OH) High School. He originally signed with Michigan where he appeared in two games in 2023.

With Calhoun signing, Alabama has now added two players to the fold the portal. Alabama added Florida defensive end Kelby Collins on Tuesday, beefing up the Tide’s defensive front ahead of the 2025 season.

Florida defensive lineman Kelby Collins is Alabama's first scholarship addition from the transfer portal. The Gardendale, Alabama native has two years of eligibility remaining.

Collins earned Freshman All-SEC honors in 2023, recording 23 tackles, including 1.5 sacks, to go with four quarterback hurries, a pass deflection and a forced fumble. However, he struggled with a position change to a three-tech role at defensive tackle this season, leading to limited playing time. Alabama will likely look to move the 6-foot-4, 278-pound defender back to the edge in its Bandit role.

Alabama recruited Collins out of high school. The former four-star recruit signed with Florida as the No. 52 overall player and No. 6 strongside defensive end in the 2023 class.

Alabama cornerback Jaylen Mbakwe is expected to return to Alabama for his sophomore season, according to a report Tuesday. Mbakwe announced his intentions to enter the portal Monday.

Mbakwe appeared in 10 games during his true freshman season for the Crimson Tide and had 15 tackles, two pass deflections and an interception. He was a five-star recruit in the Class of 2024 out of Clay-Chalkville High School in Pinson, Alabama. He chose the Tide over Auburn and Georgia.

Alabama could experiment with Mbakwe on both sides of the ball during the ReliaQuest Bowl against Michigan. Mbakwe played both cornerback and quarterback at the high school level and offensive snaps are likely in the rising sophomore's future after doubling back on his decision to transfer.

The Tide now has 13 players who have left the portal with four who have already found homes elsewhere.

Alabama defensive lineman Damon Payne Jr. is expected to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports Tuesday.

Payne appeared in 32 games with one start and had 30 tackles and 0.5 sacks in three seasons with the Crimson Tide. He made his first career start this season during Alabama’s win over South Carolina and finished the 2024 campaign with 14 tackles and a fumble recovery.

Alabama has already removed Payne’s profile from its 2024 roster. Payne was a four-star recruit and the No. 2 defensive tackle in the Class of 2021 from Belleville High School in Michigan.

New school: Michigan

Alabama cornerback Jaylen Mbwake plans to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports.

Mbakwe appeared in 10 games during his true freshman season for the Crimson Tide and had 15 tackles, two pass deflections and an interception. He was a five-star recruit in the Class of 2024 out of Clay-Chalkville High School in Pinson, Alabama. He chose the Tide over Auburn and Georgia.

Mbakwe will have three seasons of eligibility left at his next destination. Alabama has now seen 13 players enter the transfer portal since the window opened on Dec. 9.

Another Alabama wide receiver will play his next season elsewhere. Junior wideout Emmanuel Henderson is expected to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. Henderson confirmed his entrance into the portal in a statement released by A&P Sports Agency on Instagram.

"I want to thank my family, coaches and the University of Alabama for the opportunity to play the sport I love," Henderson's statement said. "I am grateful for the past three years I've had at Alabama and the experiences, memories and friendships I have made. After much consideration, I have decided to enter my name into the transfer portal with one year of eligibility remaining."

Henderson appeared in all 12 games for Alabama this season and has 5 catches for 96 yards during his three-year career with the Crimson Tide. Henderson was a four-star prospect and the No. 4 wideout in the Class of 2022 for Geneva County High School in Hartford, Alabama.

Four wide receivers have now entered the portal for the Crimson Tide. Henderson joins junior Kendrick Law, freshman Caleb Odom and sophomore Kobe Prentice.

New school: Kansas

Alabama tight end Danny Lewis Jr. has withdrawn his name from the transfer portal, according to multiple reports Monday.

Lewis initially entered the portal on Dec. 9. He appeared in 31 games in three seasons with the Crimson Tide and played in every game this season. The redshirt sophomore has one catch for five yards which came against Chattanooga in 2023.

Lewis was a three-star prospect in the Class of 2022 from New Iberia, Louisiana. His now-expected return is a boost for the Tide's tight end room, which is set to lose veterans CJ Dippre and Robbie Ouzts, who are both out of eligibility after this season. The Tide added four-star recruits Marshall Pritchett and Kaleb Edwards during the 2025 recruiting cycle and is expected to host a transfer tight end for a visit this week.

Alabama appears to have found its replacement for departing long snapper Kneeland Hibbett, adding California transfer David Bird as a preferred walk-on. Bird, a rising junior, did not record an errant snap during his two seasons with the Golden Bears. The Phoenix native was ranked as the No. 1 long-snapper in the 2023 class, according to Kohl’s Professional Camps.

“He has set the standard for the 2023 class and has for multiple years,” Kohl’s wrote in its scouting report. “Bird is so dominant, when he doesn’t have the top chart in the country, people are confused about what happened.”

Alabama safety DeVonta Smith plans to enter the transfer portal as a graduate transfer, Tide Illustrated confirmed Saturday.

Smith started 11 games for the Crimson Tide this season playing the Husky position in defensive coordinator Kane Wommack’s setup. Smith had 30 tackles, five pass deflections and a forced fumble during his redshirt junior season.

A former four-star recruit in the Class of 2021, Smith arrived at Alabama from La Salle High School in Cincinnati, Ohio after flipping his commitment from Ohio State. Smith played on special teams during the 2021 and 2022 seasons and battled back from injury in 2023 to appear in four games. He earned his starting spot this offseason and was one of the key veteran members of a young Alabama defensive back room.

Smith will have one year of eligibility remaining at his next destination.

New school: Notre Dame

Alabama running back Justice Haynes has entered the transfer portal, Tide Illustrated has learned.

Haynes, a sophomore, was one of the Tide’s two premier backs last season, alongside junior Jam Miller. Haynes had 79 carries for 448 yards and seven touchdowns in his second campaign with the Tide and 25 carries for 168 yards and two scores on the ground as a freshman.

The Buford, Georgia product arrived at Alabama as the No. 33 player in the Class of 2023. He had steady production over the course of the season, but only eclipsed 50 yards rushing on two occasions in a crowded rushing attack that heavily featured Miller and Tide quarterback Jalen Milroe.

Haynes will have two years of eligibility remaining at his next destination.

New school: Michigan

Alabama quarterback Dylan Lonergan is expected to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports Wednesday.

Lonergan completed 7 of 8 pass attempts for 35 yards over two seasons with the Crimson Tide. Lonergan was behind starting quarterback Jalen Milroe and backup Ty Simpson on the depth chart this season, along with Washington quarterback transfer Austin Mack. Lonergan appeared in two game, completing 5 of 6 pass attempts in limited action during Alabama's win over Mercer.

The redshirt freshman quarterback was a four-star recruit in the Class of 2023 from Brookwood High School in Snellville, Georgia. He was rated as the No. 13 quarterback in his high school class and will have three years of eligibility remaining at his next destination.

Milroe, who could enter the 2025 NFL Draft, still has one year of eligibility remaining for Alabama. Along with Simpson and Mack the Tide also signed five-star quarterback Keelon Russell, who was recently named the Gatorade National Football Player of the Year.

"Blessed to have the opportunity to say I was a part of the Crimson Tide," Osborne said in a post on X. "Looking forward to the blessings to come in the future."

Osborne will have three seasons of eligibility remaining at his next destination. Alabama has seen nine players enter the transfer portal as of Monday morning.

New school: Virginia

Alabama tight end Danny Lewis Jr. will enter the transfer portal which is now officially open to undergraduate players. Lewis appeared in 31 games in three seasons with the Crimson Tide and played in every game this season. However, the redshirt sophomore only has just one catch for five yards which came against Chattanooga in 2023.

Lewis was a three-star prospect in the Class of 2022 from New Iberia, Louisiana. In addition to his now-expected departure, the Tide will also lose veteran tight ends CJ Dippre and Robbie Ouzts, who are both out of eligibility after this season. The Tide added four-star recruits Marshall Pritchett and Kaleb Edwards during the 2025 recruiting cycle.

Alabama appears to be adding a new name to the mix for next year’s punter opening. Sunday night, the Crimson Tide received a commitment from Colorado School of Mines punter Blake Doud. The redshirt junior will have one year of eligibility remaining at Alabama.

Doud earned Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Special Teams Player of the Year honors this season, leading NCAA Division II with 46.6 yards per punt. The Parker Colorado native had 13 punts of 50 or more yards this season and pinned his opponents inside the 20 on 19 occasions. He had a career-long 80-yard punt that was downed at the 1 against West Texas A&M

Alabama wide receiver Kendrick Law is expected to enter the transfer portal, which opens Monday. Law is the third player from Alabama to enter the portal Sunday, joining fellow wideout Caleb Odom and offensive lineman Miles McVay.

Law had 10 catches for 105 yards and a touchdown this season. The former four-star recruit in the Class of 2022 was expected to have a bigger role in the Tide’s offense this season after catching 15 passes for 135 yards in 2023. Law started the season as the No. 1 option at the X receiver position on Alabama's depth chart, but the Tide leaned more heavily on freshman Ryan Williams and Washington transfer Germie Bernard.

Law totaled 33 catches for 343 yards and one touchdown in three seasons at Alabama and will have one year of eligibility remaining at his next destination. He is the third Alabama receiver to enter the portal joining Odom and junior Kobe Prentice.

New school: Kansas

Suspended linebacker Keanu Koht is transferring from Alabama, A&P Sports Agency informed Rivals.

Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer announced earlier in November that Koht had been suspended from the team indefinitely. The redshirt junior was not with the team during its 52-7 win against Mercer over the weekend. Koht will have one year of eligibility at his next school.

Koht appeared in 106 defensive snaps over seven appearances, recording five tackles and 0.5 sacks this season. The Vero Beach, Florida native joined Alabama as the No. 43 overall play and No. 2 weakside defensive end in the 2021 class.

New school: Vanderbilt

Jehiem Oatis will redshirt this season and enter the transfer portal. The sophomore defensive tackle started 13 games in his first two seasons with the Crimson Tide but has been limited in Alabama's first five games of the 2024 season.

A former top-100 player in the Class of 2022, Oatis logged 55 tackles and 1.5 sacks in his first two seasons at Alabama. After making two tackles in 23 snaps against Western Kentucky, he saw his snap count drop in Alabama's following games and did not appear in the Tide's 40-35 loss to Vanderbilt.

“Jaheim, it felt like it was going that way," Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer said. "I think you also have to understand there’s other elements to this. There’s health elements, there’s life elements. I love these guys, they work hard and Jaheim’s choices, there’s reasons for that. He has notified and continued to be in communication here with us. Kinda felt like it was maybe going in that direction, not just today or yesterday but just here in the last few days. We move forward with the guys that really are able to help us win and focused on our program."

Monday evening, Oatis confirmed his decision to redshirt and enter the transfer portal through a post on social media.

"This decision did not come easily, but I need to prioritize my future and career," Oatis said in the post. "While the season did not unfold the way we had hoped, my love for this school and its incredible fan base remains as strong as ever. I am deeply grateful for the memories and experiences that have shaped me here, and I will carry them with me the rest of my life.

"As I look forward to the next chapter, I'm excited to find a new home where I can bring NFL-caliber play and help my future team compete for championships."
