AK Dear Injury Shakes Tide RB Depth | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Alabama’s rushing attack is in flux as sophomore running back AK Dear suffered a scary injury during fall camp—scoring a TD before going down. The team’s hopes now rest on freshman five-star recruit EJ Crowell, who sat out practice but is expected to be ready for the season opener against East Carolina. With Dear sidelined and Daniel Hill carrying the load as the top returning rusher, the Tide’s depth at RB is suddenly thinner than anticipated. Fans are watching closely to see how this shake-up affects their ground game heading into the new season. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
