Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Noah Carter
A defensive prospect who was a new face to Tuscaloosa last season, could this mark a breakout year for Alabama Crimson Tide linebacker Noah Carter?
One of the first prep commits of the Kalen DeBoer era, Carter was previously a long-time pledge to the Washington Huskies, but decommitted to eventually end up following the head coach to Tuscaloosa.
With a year of collegiate experience now, Carter enters 2025 looking to make an impact as a redshirt freshman in a loaded Alabama outside linebacker room.
Here is everything you need to know about Alabama linebacker Noah Carter entering the 2025 season.

Noah Carter 2025 season outlook
Yet another option to make an impact at outside linebacker, Carter is a name to watch for in 2025 when it comes to potential breakout candidates on defense.
At Alabama's "Wolf" position, the Crimson Tide will return a 2024 starter in Qua Russaw, as well as other top backup options such as Jah-Marien Latham and Yhonzae Pierre. Also in that group is Carter, who is alongside others that could end emerging into larger roles as the season progresses.
Overall, expect Carter to see some time defensively, but for a majority of the outside linebacker's impact to actually come on special teams.
