The Alabama Crimson Tide unfortunately missed out on the 2022 College Football Playoffs and therefore must prepare to close its season with a Sugar Bowl matchup with Kansas State. Additionally, the transfer portal officially opened on Monday with the regular season officially ending, meaning players must decide if they want to stay for bowl practice or look for greener pastures.

The Alabama Crimson Tide saw its fifth offensive lineman enter the transfer portal on Monday night in redshirt junior Amari Kight, according to Matt Zentiz of On3 Sports.
