Former Alabama linebacker, Rolando McClain, has applied for reinstatement into the NFL, according to a tweet he released on Friday.
I applied for reinstatement from the NFL and I'm gonna make this comeback to play the game I love. I'm healthy both mentally and physically, I just need the chance to show what I can do

McClain suited up for the tide from 2007-2009. The Decatur-native won the Dick Butkus award in 2009 and helped Alabama win the 2010 BCS National Championship. The Oakland Raiders selected McClain in the 2010 NFL Draft with the eighth overall pick.
