Four players from Alabama high schools and colleges scored touchdowns during the NFL’s six-game preseason schedule on Saturday, with two doing so in their first pro appearances.

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Eli Ricks (Alabama) returned an interception 31 yards for a touchdown in a 20-19 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Tyrell Shavers (Alabama) caught a 22-yard touchdown pass in a 23-19 victory over the Indianapolis Colts, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert (McGill-Toolen, South Alabama) had a 17-yard touchdown reception in a 28-23 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis (Auburn) had a 2-yard touchdown run in a 23-17 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Ricks and Shavers were making their pro debuts, but the touchdown also was the first as a pro for Tolbert, who was an NFL rookie last year. Willis ran for an NFL regular-season touchdown as a rookie in 2022.

They weren’t the only players with Alabama football roots to make a splash during Saturday’s NFL preseason schedule.
