Quick Summary

Alabama’s top receiver, Ryan Coleman-Williams, will likely miss this Saturday's game against Tennessee due to multiple injuries including a concussion and knee issues. Coach Kalen DeBoer stated that Coleman-Williams is doubtful for “The Third Saturday in October” rivalry match, noting he may face further absences depending on his recovery progress over the next week. Alabama’s offense will need to rely more heavily on receivers Lotzeir Brooks and Rico Scott, who could see increased playing time as a result of Coleman-Williams’ absence.
