Former Alabama linebacker has huge expectations for Mack Wilson next season

His head coach wants him to play with consistent energy and focus, however, Lyndell “Mack” Wilson has earned his respect at the University of Alabama in the eyes of former players.

Hailing from Montgomery, Ala., Wilson started his career as a headhunter on special teams but has now transformed himself into a three-down linebacker. After sharing the spotlight with Reuben Foster and Rashaan Evans, all eyes will be on the former five-star in the coming fall.

Almost every marquee name that the Crimson Tide placed in the National Football League on defense started off as stalwarts in kickoff/punt coverage.
