Dre Kirkpatrick Jr. is a college football defensive back for the University of Alabama. He is the son of former NFL cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick. In late 2025, reports indicate he faced legal trouble and was arrested on multiple misdemeanor charges related to reckless endangerment and attempting to elude, leading Alabama to suspend him indefinitely from competition. These events drew attention to his status on the team and his future with Alabama. If you’d like, I can summarize the timeline of events or pull in additional sources for more context.
