According to a report from CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz, former Alabama commit Ty Haywood has officially entered the NCAA transfer portal.

Haywood spent his freshman year at Michigan, as the promising offensive lineman appeared in just three games for the Wolverines in 2025.

The former coveted prospect was originally committed to Alabama from July 2024 to Jan. 2025 prior to ending up at Michigan, and the Tide could potentially make a run at Haywood once again in the near future. A former four-star recruit, the freshman was considered to be one of the top offensive lineman from the 2025 class, and his presence would add an instant boost to the Crimson Tide's offensive line in 2026 and beyond.

Haywood was ranked as the No. 6 offensive tackle and the No. 39 overall player from the class of 2025, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. Alabama could potentially emerge as a top landing spot for the star tackle once again, as the former Wolverine will undoubtedly receive a multitude of interest from various programs across the country.

Alabama has lost numerous players on both sides of the football to both the NFL draft and the transfer portal this offseason, but adding a player of Haywood's caliber could prove to be an instant game changer.
