Alabama had seven players enter the NCAA's transfer portal a day after the team's loss in the College Football Playoff National Championship.

The group of players appeared in the portal. In the past two seasons, he had 35 catches for 543 yards and six touchdown. He played behind Latu at the end of the season but was a preseason All-SEC selection. After recording nine catches for 152 yards and a touchdown in wins over Southern Miss and Florida, Billingsley had seven catches the rest of the season.

Other entrants in the Alabama transfer portal included Drew Sanders, who had 24 tackles, 1 sack, 4 quarterback hurries and 2 pass breakups. The great-grandson of former Alabama coach Paul "Bear" Bryant, as well as offensive lineman Tommy Brown, entered the portal.

The Georgia team that beat Alabama in the championship game had two players enter the portal Tuesday: defensive back Ameer Speed, who started three games and recorded 13 tackles this season, and wide receiver Jaylen Johnson, who had three catches for 29 yards in 14 games.
