Anfernee Jennings to leave a mark on Alabama with big senior year

Before he potentially becomes a first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Anfernee Jennings has one final year of wreaking opposing quarterbacks for the University of Alabama.

The 6-foot-3, 259-pound outside linebacker returned strong last season, following a season-ending leg injury versus Clemson in the 2017 College Football Playoff semifinal matchup at the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, La.

As the Comeback Athlete of the Year via the Crimson Choice Awards, the redshirt senior totaled 50 tackles – including 13 for loss and 5.5 sacks in 2018.

He recorded a team-high 11 pass breakups and tallied six quarterback pressures, one interception, one forced fumble and one touchdown.
