Alabama QB Bryce Young leaves game with shoulder injury, but not considered to be serious

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Alabama quarterback Bryce Young, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, injured the AC joint in his shoulder during the first half of Saturday's 49-26 win at Arkansas.

Young threw his helmet in frustration, entered the medical tent and later went to the locker room. His parents left their seats in the stands to join him.

But Young was able to return to the sideline and Alabama coach Nick Saban said the injury isn't considered serious.

"I think he's OK," Saban said. "He doesn't have a serious injury. We didn't think he could go back in the game today because I didn't think he had much steam throwing the ball.
