PRACTICE+REPORT%3A+Coker+returns+to+sideline

The Alabama football team worked in its indoor facility on Tuesday afternoon. Quarterback Jake Coker returned, working on the sideline with trainers. Coker missed yesterday’s practice session due to a “minor foot injury” that will keep him out for a few days, according to a statement Alabama coach Nick Saban released through UA Athletics.

NOTES:

  • RB Kenyan Drake returned to practice today, running cutting drills with the running backs. Drake ran next to last, in front of Bo Scarbrough, who wore a black non-contact jersey. Derrick Henry led the line, followed by Damien Harris.
  • Alec Morris led the quarterbacks, followed by Cooper Bateman, David Cornwell and Blake Barnett, in order. 
  • WR Chris Black, with a heavily taped ankle, ran passing drills but only at about half-speed.
  • WR Robert Foster worked without a knee brace.
  • Alabama worked in its Dime defensive package. The first group is listed below.
    • Cornerbacks – Cyrus Jones and Marlon Humphrey
    • Safeties – Eddie Jackson and Geno Smith
    • Star/Money – Minkah Fitzpatrick and Maurice Smith
    • MACK linebacker – Reuben Foster
