The Alabama football program has announced its 2024 team MVP, as well as its Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year, following another standout season for the Crimson Tide.
The **2024 Team MVP** award went to junior quarterback **Jalen Milroe**. Milroe had a breakout year, leading Alabama’s offense with poise and skill. Known for his dual-threat ability, Milroe passed for over 3,100 yards and accounted for 35 total touchdowns, helping guide the Tide to a top-10 finish in the SEC. His leadership, decision-making, and ability to make plays in critical moments earned him the recognition as the team’s most valuable player.
The **Offensive Player of the Year** honor was given to junior wide receiver **Jermaine Burton**. Burton had a dominant season as Milroe’s top target, recording 1,300 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns. His ability to stretch the field and make acrobatic catches was a key component of Alabama’s high-powered offense. Burton’s deep-threat capability opened up space for the rest of the receiving corps and provided a reliable target in crucial situations, establishing himself as one of the SEC’s premier wideouts.
On the defensive side, the **Defensive Player of the Year** was awarded to senior linebacker **Dallas Turner**. Turner was a force on the edge, leading Alabama with 12 sacks and 18 tackles for loss. His relentless pass rush and ability to disrupt opposing quarterbacks were critical in Alabama’s defensive success. Turner’s leadership, intensity, and playmaking ability played a vital role in the Tide’s defensive dominance, earning him the top honor on that side of the ball.
These three players were central to Alabama’s success in 2024, exemplifying the program’s tradition of excellence on both sides of the ball. Their individual performances were instrumental in keeping Alabama among the nation’s elite teams.
