After missing the last month due to an injury, one of Alabama's young defensive linemen is set to return to practice.

Freshman Stephon Wynn will practice this week for the first time since sustaining a ligament strain in early August, coach Nick Saban said Monday.

Saban isn't sure yet, though, whether Wynn will be available against Ole Miss on Saturday.

"It's too early to tell whether he'll be healthy enough to be able to use him in the game," Saban said.

A four-star recruit, Wynn was working as a third-team defensive end prior to getting hurt.
