Maxwell Donaldson
Former Alabama football long snapper Carson Tinker was a late-week addition to the Los Angeles Rams practice squad, meaning he will earn a Super Bowl 2022 ring.
After the game, Tinker was on the field at Sofi Stadium and was able to take a photo with the Lombardi Trophy with his wife, Annie Bates and their son.
Tinker will now be able to add a Super Bowl ring to his collection that includes three national championships (2009, 2011 and 2012) at Alabama. He was the starting long snapper on both the 2011 and 2012 teams.
