Background

Early life

Tolbert was born on February 27, 1999, in Mobile, Alabama. He attended McGill–Toolen Catholic High School, where he played baseball, basketball, and football. Tolbert did not become a starter until his senior year, where he finished the season with 37 receptions for 696 yards and nine touchdowns. He was rated a two-star recruit and initially committed to play college football at Jacksonville State, before choosing to attend the University of South Alabama.

College career

Tolbert redshirted his true freshman season with the Jaguars after suffering a knee injury in preseason training camp. In the 2019 season, he entered the starting lineup as a redshirt sophomore and finished the season with 27 receptions for 521 yards (leading the conference with 19.3 yards per reception) and six touchdowns. In the 2020 season, Tolbert was named first-team All-Sun Belt Conference as a redshirt junior after catching 64 passes for 1,085 yards (both school records) and eight touchdowns (tied the school record). Against Arkansas State, he set a school record with 252 yards on ten receptions and three touchdowns. In 2021, he was again named first-team All-Sun Belt and the conference's Offensive Player of the Year (South Alabama's first) after surpassing his own school records and leading the conference in receptions (82), receiving yards (1,474) and yards per reception (18.0), while scoring eight touchdowns.
