Alabama football has a thin roster on defense. There is a disturbing lack of depth on the defensive line and at linebacker and suddenly also in the secondary. How many more injuries to key players can the Crimson Tide defense overcome? Not many. Losing Trevon Diggs to a broken ankle was bad enough. Losing a Quinnen Williams, Mack Wilson, Dylan Moses, Deionte Thompson or Patrick Surtain II would be even worse. Losing any of the two of the above could derail the Tide’s championship dreams.
As yet, it is not known who will become the sixth defensive back in the dime, replacing Trevon Diggs.
