Even in the midst of Alabama spring ball, quarterback Jalen Hurts still makes time for his fans.
After learning about Alabama super fan Jason Mixon, the freshman phenom decided to pay him a surprise visit.
Mixon is a 2011 Alabama graduate who now teaches music at Arts n’ Autism, an organization in Tuscaloosa that provides services to children with Autism.
