DeMeco Ryans

The Crimson Tide-turned-Texan superstar is arguably the best player to come through Tuscaloosa. His final season had him questioning everything, including God.

Former Alabama DB Kareem Jackson is returning to the Houston Texans and his former teammate, now coach, Demeco Ryans.

Hate to break it to everyone, but the idea of him returning to West Alabama this year is more than far fetched.

The Tide kicks off in 35 days, so let's look at a former Bama linebacker who has made quite the name for himself in the NFL, DeMeco Ryans.

If you aren't sure who to root for going into the divisional round starting today and want to support some Alabama alumni, here is a list of who's left on the remaining playoff teams.

Former Alabama Crimson Tide linebacker, DeMeco Ryans is being promoted from linebackers coach to defensive coordinator for the San Fransico 49ers. Ryans received the promotion after former defensive coordinator Robert Saleh left the 49ers to accept the head coaching position for the New York Jets.
