Tennessee’s Alvin Kamara was a teammate of Altee Tenpenny when they played for Alabama. This weekend Alvin made several tributes for his friend.
There has been a lot of good clean hate between Alabama fans and Tennessee fans over the past week, but this is awesome.
Alvin Kamara and Altee Tenpenny both played at Alabama, and then left Alabama because of issues off the field; that’s not what this is about though. This is about one teammate remembering another teammate and friend after he passed away, even if they weren’t on the same team anymore.
Altee Tenpenny was tragically killed in a car accident on Wednesday.
You can’t see the caption, so click the post, it’s worth it.
Man, if that doesn’t make you root for Alvin Kamara, I don’t know what will. There are some things that are just bigger than football y’all.
If that wasn’t enough Alvin also wore a “28” on his towel to honor Altee.

I’ll be rooting for Alvin Kamara when he’s not playing the Tide this season.
