It appears as though Alabama finally has a student-athlete represented as a first-team selection for an All-America list.
After getting showered with second and third-team nominations, Jaylen Waddle was recognized as a first-teamer on Tuesday – according to a report from Sporting News.
The sophomore was honored for his efforts in the return game.
A native of Houston, Texas, Waddle had opposing teams in fear of punting or kicking the ball in his direction. He led the nation with an average of 25 yards per punt return and totaled 474 yards on 19 attempts.
