Alphonso Tyrone Swoopes Jr. (born November 14, 1994) is a former American football tight end.

He played quarterback for the Texas Longhorns and signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent in 2017.

He played in the 2013 U.S. Army All-American Bowl, and consistently was rated among the top 10 quarterback recruits in the country.

[5] On November 28, he had his first career rushing touchdown, which came in the fourth quarter against Texas Tech.

"[10] Despite solid play by Swoopes, his debut game against BYU represented the worst home loss, 41–7, for Texas since 1997.

[11][12] Swoopes had another solid performance the following week against #12 UCLA, but despite a late lead, the Longhorns again came up short.

[16] That was followed by a gutsy win over Iowa State in which Swoopes, who set a career-high for total offense, led the Longhorns on a game-winning drive with only 28 seconds left, after having led them on a touchdown drive only a minute earlier.

[18] Then the team won three straight over Texas Tech,[19] #24 West Virginia,[20] and Oklahoma State.

[21] The highlight of the season was arguably the upset win of then #24 West Virginia, which was not a great game for Swoopes, but was a necessary one for Texas to become bowl-eligible.

The next week, against Oklahoma State, Swoopes had the best game of his career, with 305 yards, two touchdowns, and a career-high quarterback rating of 170.4.

[23] His performance during the last two games of the season and his 5–7 record as a starter left analysts questioning his role in 2015.

Before the bowl game, Max Olson of ESPN wrote of him "he will have to fight for his job next year.

[43] He was promoted to the active roster on October 13, 2018, and started the game the next day against Oakland during which he had one reception.

Swoopes re-signed with the team on January 11, 2021,[58] but was released after failing to report to training camp.
