Roll Call, July 11, 2024

Three Alabama football players traveled to Birmingham on Tuesday to visit patients at the children’s hospital.

“Thank you for having us out yesterday,” Alabama offensive lineman Tyler Booker wrote in a post on X. “We are so happy we could be a blessing yesterday! Looking forward to our next visit!”

Booker was joined by quarterback Jalen Milroe and fellow offensive lineman Kadyn Proctor, who spent time with patients and took photos, which Children’s posted to social media.

“A huge thank you to Alabama football for bringing their winning spirit to our inpatients today! It was an unforgettable day filled with smiles, laughter, and inspiration,” Children’s wrote in a post on X.
