Due to rain in Tuscaloosa Wednesday afternoon, Alabama Football practiced inside. Media viewing is not allowed when the Alabama Crimson Tide works inside so Wednesday became the second straight practice with no media viewing periods.

Nick Saban gave a video review after practice and answered several questions via a Zoom connection.

Most noteworthy were clarifications about two Crimson Tide players. Saban confirmed the rumor of Xavier Williams missing the 2021 season by saying, “he’s medically not going to play this year.” An explanation was also provided about why Jahleel Billingsley missed the first two Alabama Football, Fall Camp sessions.
