Alabama football fans may remember last season when Minkah Fitzpatrick tweaked his hamstring against LSU. Panic set in as fans began to imagine a reality where their leader and star player of the defensive secondary would not be available for the rest of the season.
Although he did not miss time as Trevon Diggs will, he was still extremely limited. Did Alabama change their secondary coverages to help Minkah as a result to his injury? No, instead Bama increased the focus of the defensive line to put pressure on the QB.
With Trevon Diggs out someone will have to replace him.
