Justice Haynes

Haynes is yet another talented running back added by the Tide. The freshman is a five-star recruit and largely considered the top running back prospect in the nation heading into his first year at Alabama. His father, Vernon Haynes was a running back at Georgia and a fifth-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2002. While his father was more of a bruiser, Justice is a tad lighter but considered far more explosive. In high school, the younger Haynes posted video game numbers, rushing for 7,574 yards and 95 touchdowns. As a senior, he averaged an outrageous 11.1 yards per carry. Haynes is currently listed behind seniors Jase McClellan and Roydell Williams on the depth chart. While both McClellan and Williams have plenty of experience at Alabama, neither has been a featured running back during their time with the Tide. As a result, expect Haynes to work his way into the rotation early on, especially if the veterans struggle out of the gate. Read Past Outlooks
