Levi Wallace grades out top rookie cornerback for Pro Football Focus

His father would be mighty proud.

Walter Wallace had a dream of playing football at the University of Alabama, but it was son – Levi – that ended up fulfilling the dream. In honor of his dad, the young Wallace demonstrated the characteristics of toughness, hard work and persistence as he went from being a walk-on to accepting a scholarship in 2016.

In growing up before the eyes of Crimson Tide fans, Wallace was integral in the team’s run to a College Football Playoff national title in 2017.

He shut down the left side of a football field, collecting a team-high 15 pass breakup and three interceptions as a senior.
