Alabama’s linebacker depth has apparently taken a hit this week as redshirt freshman Shawn Jennings is reportedly no longer on the team. Jennings was a three-star member of the Crimson Tide’s 2016 recruiting class. Jennings was a member of the PrepStar All-Southeast Region team coming out of high school.
The freshman linebacker’s departure from Alabama was first reported by Matt Zenitz of AL.com. Because of his redshirt status last season, Jennings did not see the field for the Tide in 2016.
Jennings signed with Alabama over offers from Auburn and Memphis coming out of Dadeville High School. He earned Second-Team All-State honors from the Alabama Sports Writers Association in 2014. Jennings is the brother of another Bama linebacker, Anfernee Jennings.
