\n

Former Alabama national championship-winning quarterback AJ McCarron<\/a> on Thursday announced he is running for lieutenant governor in 2026.<\/p>\n

The Mobile native and former Cincinnati Bengals quarterback had also reportedly been considering whether to run <\/a>for U.S. Senate.<\/p>\n

McCarron will be up against Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen, <\/a>Alabama Agriculture Commissioner Rick Pate, <\/a>Opelika pastor Dean Odle, <\/a>and commercial realtor Nicole Wadsworth<\/a> in the lieutenant governor\u2019s race.<\/p>\n

Former Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill has also been said to be considering a run.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Coach Sabian recruited me to play quarterback for the University of Alabama, he taught me the principles of being a leader,\u201d McCarron said in a video announcing his candidacy. <\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd together we won back to back national championships. And playing in the NFL reinforced the importance of achieving goals bigger than ourselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy roots run deep in Alabama, and with my football career behind me, Katherine and I are raising our boys here, instilling in them our deep Christian faith and teaching them the fundamental morals that make this state so special.\u201d<\/p>\n

McCarron noted that he endorsed President Trump during Trump\u2019s first campaign in 2016. He said the assassination of Charlie Kirk motivated him.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlabama\u2019s conservative and cultural values are under attack from every direction,\u201d McCarron said. \u201cThat\u2019s why Charlie Kirk\u2019s assassination affected so many of us so deeply.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis example convinced me to get off the sidelines and get into the game and stand tall for our conservative beliefs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Montgomery insiders and career politicians have had their chance. It\u2019s time for political newcomers and outsider candidates like me to lead the battle.\u201d <\/p>\n

McCarron mentioned Sen. Tommy Tuberville, the frontrunner in the Alabama governor\u2019s race next year and the former Auburn football coach, in his announcement.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile playing for the Cincinnati Bengals, I endorsed President Trump in 2016 because he was an outsider candidate,\u201d McCarron said. <\/p>\n

\u201cAnd when Coach Tuberville is governor, I\u2019ll be the quarterback who helps pass his conservative, outsider agenda. Alabama is my home. It\u2019s made me who I am, and I feel led from above to give back to the state that has given me so much.\u201d <\/p>\n

The primary is May 19, 2026.<\/p>\n

An All-State football and baseball player at St. Paul\u2019s Episcopal School in Mobile, McCarron was a member of three Alabama teams that won the BCS national championship.<\/p>\n

He served as the Crimson Tide\u2019s starting quarterback for the title teams for the 2011 and 2012 seasons.<\/p>\n

McCarron won the Maxwell Award as the outstanding college player of the 2013 season, when he also was the runner-up in the balloting for the Heisman Trophy.<\/p>\n

He last played football in 2024, when he quarterbacked the United Football League\u2019s St. Louis Battlehawks in the league\u2019s playoffs.<\/p>\n

Since then, McCarron has talked football in a variety of media settings and most regularly on \u201cThe Dynasty: A Podcast on the Alabama Crimson Tide<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

McCarron, former Alabama All-American running back Trent Richardson and Crimson Tide announcer Chris Stewart provide the personalities for the podcast.<\/p>\n

He has largely stayed out of politics until this year\u2019s Mobile mayor race, where he endorsed eventual winner Spiro Cheriogotis.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
