Alabama believes Josh Jobe, Chris Allen are ready to emerge versus Michigan

As much as Alabama would like to have everyone on board, maybe it will be a blessing in disguise not having Trevon Diggs and Terrell Lewis on defense. Both guys were veterans and displayed leadership; however, both have chosen to sit out the Citrus Bowl against Michigan.

With these two getting prepared for the 2020 NFL Draft, an opportunity has opened for Christopher Allen and Josh Jobe and both are taking advantage of it. Jobe, a sophomore, will start on Wednesday versus the Wolverines at cornerback.

A native of Miami, Fla., he arrived in the Crimson Tide’s 2018 signing class as a four-star.
