The Next GREAT Alabama Running Back

Alabama running back Justice Haynes did not play as much in 2023 as many fans hopes or expected. The five-star freshman had an interesting first season in Tuscaloosa. After arriving for Sugar Bowl practices from Buford (Georgia) High, Haynes made a splash in the spring. He scored three touchdowns on A-Day and made a strong case for Alabama’s running back room being the best in the nation with Haynes joining two seniors, Jase McClellan and Roydell Williams, a promising underclassman in Jam Miller and another elite recruit in Richard Young.
Haynes, son of NFL veteran Verron Haynes, worked on special teams primarily this fall, earning carries against Middle Tennessee, Mississippi State, Chattanooga and Kentucky with the Tide already up big on the scoreboard. His best game was a two-touchdown showing in Bryant-Denny Stadium on Nov. 18.
Haynes finished his season with 25 carries for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Throughout the year, when asked about Haynes and the larger running back rotation, Saban mentioned how the stacked group has competed for time and Haynes and Miller were set for larger contributions.

This kid is awesome. His dad didn’t just play for UGA, his dad caught the famous “Hob nail boot play” that all those UGA fans have pictures of hanging on their wall…..UGA fans were mad about Downs but they were rlly pi$$ed about Haynes. This kid is gonna be awesome for us in the running game and passing game as well. Kid has hands. Like a shorter Najee Harris. Rtr!

Tough to see some leave, great to some greats stay! You'll be on the Heisman stage. Roll Tide!

[@tombrown7577]

Before it's all said and done, and he stays healthy, this dude could possibly be one of the best running backs ever to wear the Crimson Tide uniform. He's a beast! ROLL TIDE!
