Alabama TE signs with an agent, seemingly won't return to Tide in 2021
Alabama TE Miller Forristall had his best year as a member of the Crimson Tide in 2020.
Not only did he help the team win the national championship, he recorded 23 catches for 253 yards (both career-highs) and 1 touchdown.
Seniors can have an extra year of eligibility, as the NCAA ruled the 2020 season wouldn’t count for eligibility purposes, but it seems Forristall has signed with an agent, which means his college career is over:

Forristall had 3 catches for 31 yards in the College Football Playoff semifinal game against Notre Dame.
Can he work his way into draft position ahead of the 2021 NFL Draft in April? We’ll find out over the next few weeks.
Saturday pick.
Probably UFA. Either way I wish him the best, he’s a solid player
He may have to work his way onto a team but that’s true for anyone coming out of college as a TE, with few exceptions.
TJ Hockenson, Evan Engram, Cole Kmet, Noah Fant, Hunter Henry, Irv Smith Jr., David Njoku, Eric Ebron, OJ Howard, Mike Gesicki and Chris Herndon were all drafted as tight ends in the last few years. And that’s just the ones I could think of off the top of my head.
What did y’all do to deserve Spencer writing on Bama. You deserve better.
How do you seemingly sign with an agent. Did he use that magic disappearing ink or just the invisible kind.
Bama is seeing the same thing LSU saw after 2019. Even the marginal players that could use another year elect to go to NFL.
Bama will be alright. Always recruit well and still have the GOAT steering the ship.
