When you talk about Alabama football translating to the NFL, hristian Barmore is one of the first names that comes to mind. He is the definition of what happens when elite talent meets elite development.
From the moment Barmore stepped onto the field in Tuscaloosa, it was clear he was different: powerful hands, explosive first step, and a motor that never quit.
At Alabama, Barmore wasn’t just another defensive lineman in a long line of great ones. He was a tone-setter. He understood leverage, gap control, and how to disrupt an offense without needing the spotlight.
Week after week in the SEC, he faced double teams, future NFL linemen, and hostile environments, and he thrived. Alabama football didn’t just sharpen his physical tools; it taught him how to think the game.
In his time in Tuscaloosa, he recorded a career total 63 tackles (34 solo), 15.5 tackles for loss, 10 sacks, 5 pass deflections, and 3 forced fumbles.
That foundation carried him seamlessly into the NFL. Barmore quickly proved that the speed and physicality of the league weren’t too much , because Alabama had already prepared him for it.
His growth at the professional level mirrors what Tide fans watched in crimson: steady improvement, confidence, and a knack for showing up when games matter most.
Since becoming a New England Patriot in 2021 in the NFL, Barmore has put up quite the numbers. So far in his professional career, he has recorded 168 total tackles (95 solo), 15.5 sacks, 1 forced fumble, 9 pass deflections, and 21 stuffs.
Now, Barmore is preparing to play in the Super Bowl. That moment doesn’t happen by accident. Championship football starts in the trenches, and players like Barmore are why Alabama defenders are trusted on the biggest stage. He knows how to handle pressure. He knows how to stay disciplined when everything around him is chaos.
When Super Bowl LX kicks off, don’t just watch the skill players.
Watch the interior of the line.
Watch the battles that don’t always make the highlight shows. Chris Barmore will be right there, doing exactly what Alabama football trained him to do.
Roll Tide.
