Alabama has not had continuity at right tackle since Austin Shepherd started in 2013 and 2014. Dominick Jackson manned the spot in 2015 while freshman phenom Jonah Williams ably handled it in 2016. With Williams moving to the left side to replace 2nd round draft pick Cam Robinson, right tackle is vacant once more.
Despite some 4 and 5 star newcomers (Elliot Baker, Alex Leatherwood) along with another already on the team (Scott Lashley), three star Matt Womack got first crack at the job. The 6’7, 316lb redshirt sophomore certainly has the frame; but it remains to be see if he can hold on to the starting gig.
