>> The Houston Roughnecks added linebacker Reuben Foster to their roster in the United Football League dispersal draft. The former Crimson Tide All-American was among the 10 players from Alabama high schools and colleges who got new teams as the new league started building its rosters.

Among the other “dispersed” players with Alabama football roots was guard Calvin Ashley, who started his college career at Auburn. An All-USFL selection for the New Jersey Generals last season, Ashley was chosen by the Stallions.<<

>> Joining Foster in the USFL conference is another former Tide linebacker. Dylan Moses was on both the 2017 and 2020 national championship teams and was named an All-American and All-SEC twice each in his career (second-team All-American and All-SEC in 2018, third-team All-American and first-team All-SEC in 2020). A significant knee injury in 2019 cost him his junior season for Alabama, and he went undrafted in 2021 largely due to medical concerns with that knee. Moses joined the Memphis Showboats last season and was protected by the team in the dispersal draft.<<

Alabama loves their FB!

One thing nice about these articles is that you get the inside on why they may have missed NFL opportunity, ie injury , medical concerns etc... the talent level is there though.
