TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Under head coach Nick Saban's direction, Alabama determines its team captains a little differently from most athletic programs. They're selected by the coaches for each game of the regular season, but then the players vote for the permanent captains, who serve as such for the bowl game/playoff.
This year's captains, revealed at the annual team banquet the night following the SEC Championship Game, are Jonathan Allen, Reuben Foster, Cam Robinson...and Eddie Jackson.
"For the team to recognize Eddie even though he didn't play in the second half of the season just shows how much he meant to the team," Allen said.
