Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Aeryn Hampton
Crimson Tide Freshman Ready to Break Out?
Aeryn Hampton arrived at Alabama last year with high expectations after being ranked as a top athlete out of high school. But the redshirt freshman saw limited action in just three games, catching one pass for six yards against Mercer. Despite that, Hampton's potential is undeniable and could blossom into a breakout 2025 season.
The Numbers So Far
- Position: Wide Receiver
- Jersey Number: No. 6
- Height: 5’10”
- Weight: 195 lbs
- Class: Redshirt Freshman
- Hometown: Daingerfield, Texas
- High School: Daingerfield
Hampton's performance last season was a quiet introduction to college football. He’ll be looking to build on that experience and make his mark in the competitive Alabama receiving corps.
A Highly-Touted Recruit
Ranked as the nation's No. 227 overall player by the 247Sports Composite rankings, Hampton was a four-star prospect who committed to Alabama in December 2023. He was lauded as the No. 9 overall athlete and the No. 37 player in Texas.
Looking Ahead: A Potential Breakout?
While Alabama boasts a stacked wide receiver room, don't count Hampton out just yet. He could still see significant playing time, possibly in a rotational role or on special teams. The talent is there, and with continued development, he has the potential to become a key contributor for the Crimson Tide.
