Alabama football has a ‘lighter,’ but still dominant Evan Neal at left tackle

One of the most shocking moments this week was seeing weight gained and lost by Alabama football players.

Defensive players such as Chris Braswell, Drew Sanders, Malachi Moore, Kool-Aid McKinstry, and Terrion Arnold experienced significant weight gains. Other names such as Christopher Allen, LaBryan Ray, Kendrick Blackshire, Chris Owens, and Javion Cohen dropped weight to remain in elite playing condition. The biggest weight lost offensively was Evan Neal at left tackle.

When he arrived in the Crimson Tide’s 2019 recruiting class, Neal was 360 pounds. The 6-foot-7 specimen was a five-star athlete from Florida who played at IMG Academy.
