Alabama has set the standard for player care for the last 15 years. No one does it quite like Saban when it comes to athlete appreciation. These NFL care packages are just another example of the Tide taking things to the next level.
The Tide takes kicks off in just 26 days, so let's take a look at a legendary father/son duo that both suited up for the Crimson Tide, Bobby and Marlon Humphrey.
The Tide saw seven players drafted in the most recent NFL Draft, and certain NFL franchises have had a habit of selecting Alabama players during Saban's tenure. Why is that?
At 69-years old, Alabama head coach Nick Saban is one of the oldest coaches in the game today but he still finds a way to connect with his players. The seven-time national champion has a dry sense of humor that keeps his players on their toes.
Baltimore Ravens and former Alabama Crimson Tide cornerback Marlon Humphrey agreed to terms on a lucrative five-year contract extension worth $98.75. Humphrey is the son of former Alabama running back Bobby Humphrey. Humphrey is one of the top cornerbacks in the NFL and today the Ravens ensured he would be a member of the franchise for years to come.
