After hauling in a 57-yard deep ball thrown by Tua Tagovailoa, Alabama sophomore wide receiver Devonta Smith went to the locker room with what appears to be a possible hamstring injury.
The pass from Tagovailoa was on the money, and Smith got it down inside the Missouri 15-yard line, but stayed on the ground after he was tackled, clutching the back of his right leg.

Smith has 4 catches for 100 yards and a touchdown in the game against Missouri, which gets him up to 17 receptions and 309 yard and 2 touchdowns on the season. The sophomore left the field in the second quarter while Alabama had a 27-10 lead over the Tigers.
Devonta Smith is one of the many dangerous Alabama wideouts, particularly known for reeling in the 41-yard game-winning touchdown in the National Championship game against Georgia.
