Alabama’s massive 24-7 win over FSU Saturday night came at a price.
Two Alabama LBs suffered season-ending injuries against the Seminoles, according to AL.com’s Matt Zenitz. Outside LBs Christian Miller and Terrell Lewis are out for the year. Miller, the redshirt junior, suffered a torn biceps, while Lewis, a sophomore, tore a ligament in his elbow.
Lewis is expected to undergo surgery on Tuesday, per the report.
In addition to Miller’s and Lewis’ injuries, fellow LBs Rashaan Evans and Anfernee Jennings also went down with injuries. Evans has a groin injury, while Jennings suffered a sprained ankle, Nick Saban announced after the game.
While Alabama has some depth at the position, losing Miller and Lewis for the season is tough to swallow, especially during Week 1. Miller, in particular, was supposed to play a major role as a pass rusher.
It’s unknown the severity of Evans’ or Jennings’ injuries and what their statuses are for next Saturday’s game. Nick Saban will likely provide an update during his next media availability.
